My engine is toast

Thanks Mike. We'll see how thing look. I know a lot of members here go with used engines, but I'm going to see what a rebuild is going to cost before I look into used. I'm expecting I'll need a crankshaft - the engine still started and ran but it didn't sound good which leads me to believe the main and or rod bearings weren't getting enough oil.

Please keep us posted on what you find and what you decide.

Sorry to hear you're not having any luck finding a motor. Like I told you in the text, those three chain 3.2's are hard to come by. Specially the 03/04. There was a wrecked 03S with only 64k sold in Hollywood insurance auction yesterday. I didn't watch to see where it got bought from but you might find it if you call around to a few of the salvage yards around there. FYI, LAdismantler is not the top dog out there anymore after the owner hung himself. (A long juicy story behind that). You'll definitively have better luck finding a used 3.6 or maybe a 05-08 3.2. I see lots of those come up for auction.
