Hi all,
One of my toy is a 1991 Nissan 300zx Twin Turbo. It's in very good shape... except for a blown head gasket (please don't ask why).
I can purchase a used imported engine from Japan with about 50Kmiles for about $1,500. My mechanic can put it in for me for $1,000 labor.
This the first time I ever consider engine swapping. I know it's not a big deal, but I'm worried that small mistakes are made in the process resulting in more and more headache.
Questions: Have you done this before? How did it go? What would you have done differently if you can do it all over again?
Thanks,
