    That'd be a fun hobby if I had the extra money! I wonder what happened to the car it came from.

    He has these engines all the time I think. Ive seen 20b's, 3sgte's etc. Id buy it to make my car a stick, which brings me to a question. How can i make my car stick, cost, labor, parts needed?

    Re: need a spare engine to build?

    That's way overpriced if you're going to use it to prepare for turbo and all. ToySport will prepare a brand new block for you with reinforced steel liners and forged pistons, etc. etc. etc. able to withstand up to 700hp for less than $1100. When it comes time to put it in, they just take your car, take the engine out, put their new engine in. DONE. They keep your original block (if you're going the turbo route, you aren't really going to need it anymore anyway).
