What engine/vehicle do you have? Do you want a complete used engine or a remanufactured short/long block?


I don''tthink you''ll find a GM engine that will "bolt up." You could use lots of different engine transmission combo''s though. It all depends on you and how crazy you want to get with the cheeze wiz.

I have a 1989 Amigo w/ a 2.6 liter. I''ve driven the *&@# out of it for 3 years. I did buy a donor Amigo and the block had a hole in it from some catastrophic engine failure. It happened just after they put a new rebuilt head on.


What size is the engine? Maybe look on ebay or call around to local wrecking yards.
