Do you think an engine around 100K miles is ok? According to my friend it's gonna be a bit cheaper than one under 75K miles, let me know what you think.
He isn't giving the warranty, that's why I deleted the post, it was a misunderstanding on my part, apparently depending on the price the motor would come with a warranty

Yes, based on your reaction it sounds like I should take him up on his offer lol. I'll probably have to give him a hand for that price, but to me it seemed well worth it. We were going to get an engine from a crashed vehicle. He ask me just to pay for food and beers lol, most of the money is...
Do you think I need to change the transmission as well? I found a guy who will do the whole engine swap with warranty for $1000-1200, should I do it?

Yes this is the only cylinder I scoped. I can buy another endoscope but I fear it will get stuck again lol. Will I be able to tell if the other cylinder heads blew by removing the valve covers?
In the engine what parts among these are the most expensive?:
1) Cylinder head
2) Connecting rod
3) Pistons
For example, let's say I found a good block for $300, and half of the engine parts (e.g. cylinder head, connecting rod, pistons) were ok. Would it make more sense to do the...
Yes I'm thinking of doing an engine swap. Which of the following would you recommend:
1) Swapping with a crate engine
2) Finding a good core and rebuild it
3) Scrap this car for parts.
Anybody here ever bought an engine from an auto wrecker? I'm guessing if I can find one with body damage the engine might still be good, and I could just have a shop do the swap, let me know what you guys think thanks
So as long as there are no holes in the bottom of the block is it ok? Once I remove the cylinder heads will I be able to see all the way into the block?
So to my understanding, the only moving parts in the engine are the cylinder heads and the pistons right? So technically if the block isn't busted open I can just replace those and be ok? I'm assuming I may need a machine shop?
