i think it would be cheaper if you bought a 2nd hand engine and put it in

theres a lot of engine around brissy. so i dont think its gonna be hard for you to source a new engine. rebuild is gonna cost u a fair bit. but your not gonna know the quality of it.

Got a mivec engine with 70 something on it (according to the speedo). I know its in reasonable condition as I know the owner. Looking for $550. Freight to Brissy would probably cost a couple of hundred. My issue is more getting it out of the car in a hurry.

because he bought a wrecked fto,
where the engine was not impacted by the smash.
so this would suit you.
