careful, it could be too late for you to be doing the IMS upgrade. I would reach out to a shop that only does m96 rebuilds like Flat6 Innovations before you make a decision. Those fragments could already be in places where they shouldn't be and can't be taken out without a tear down. It would really suck if you spent $4K only to be right back a zero after a short time on the road. I'd rather just buy a used engine from the British shops, which some on this forum say can be bought for $5K or less. I'm sure they can do the IMS swap, if it doesn't already come installed, for less than the $4K you're being quoted in Norway. Or maybe just ship the whole car to the UK.
