Thanks!
I am not looking to do anything with the replacement engine that I don't already do. I just need something that performs as well as this engine did when new, maybe a little more power. It has a 3.55 diff, maybe I'd swap in a 3.92 to boost low speed response along with some type of emission legal headers. That stuff won't be a problem with passing the smog check.
Are you the guy that usually coordinates the Malibu Cruise at the Spring Fling?
