Very true, but I'm just shopping around. I can decide if I want to fix my CA or drop in a SR.

There is no set price on it. Depends on what you do.

My cost of transplant worked out to about R40K, that including the motor and gearbox.

Motor recieved new ACL race bearings
Cometic Head Gasket
Aftermarket BC cams
Dicktator Management
Aftermarket Ali radiator and fans
FMIC kit

My motor and gearbox I got for a steaql, think it was R9000....for both
