Poking around trying to find a commercial wrecking yard and gonna ask a couple of the more knowledgeable guys over at Penske next time I fuel daytime. Hopefully can find a cheap-ish rebuild-able virgin core.

$3-8000 is a bit steep, but for the right engine, I might. Read some other swap threads, seems I'd pretty much HAVE to do a body lift to fit it. Rather a tall engine.
