I know it's not a lot, but it definately hurts. Do you think the option you gave me would be pricey or around the same?





Well, anything involving an engine swap at a shop is going to be pricey, as you've just experienced. But there really isn't any reason I could see why the 3L would be much more expensive than swapping in another 2.5.
