    My advice is to stick with the engine that came in the car--rebuild or replace with the same engine. Otherwise, there are a host of other problems that arise; e.g. changing ECM, wiring harness, fuse boxes, main relays, etc. Proceed slowly and scope it out carefully. You don't want it to become a money pit.
