On a side note I started going through all the reciepts the guy gave me. There where a lot of little annoying recalls on the car. The rear brakes where allrplaced 6 months after he bought the car(calipers.pads rotors brake cables)  And the repair bills for replacing the lower control arms and the water pump  $1500++ Good lord I feel sick just reading those bills. I got the original window sticker with the car and even his finance paperwork 
Nice, hope I can find a CSVT documented like that!!!  IMO I think you should just swap motors if you're worried about the hassle with the 3L.  If you want performance results...maybe the 3L is the way to go.  Idk, but ov3n's 3L was pretty quick Sat.
