Any input would be much appreciated

Also I would get the PCM that goes with the engine you decide on. You may have to get PATS keys reprogrammed to start engine. 98 Mystique LS v6 atx 110,000km 97 Contour LX v6 atx 125,000km stock CD on LS, cass on LX spoiler, tinted windows on LS only 4 wheel discs on LX only All other available options on both
