do the used engine, sell the car - buy an SVT

LOL

but really, do they mean a USED engine or a remanufactured one? ususally reman. engines are BETTER than new ones...

if it's USED, make sure you know the mileage of the vehicle it came out of... no sense putting in a used engine with 200K miles on it...

good luck!!

Yeah, its a used engine and no its not remanufactured....Meaning the seals and bearings are still used and the same thing could happen in 5 miles. This used engine has 36k miles on it, which isnt bad.

One more question, the transmission was shifting hard the day that I found coolant and what not in my engine, could this simply mean the tranny was not being cooled or is it something more......?

By the way, I tried to convince the warranty people that a reman. engine would be better, but they said, "Well we only deal with used engines"
