    Sorry for the thread jack, but Scott did I miss something? Do you have to replace your motor, or did you get a spare for future use?

    Scott do you have the new one in yet? How much did the shop charge to do the swap?
    Ask forgiveness, not permission.

    Heck, maybe I should start looking for a new engine. Mine has lost about a half quart of oil per tank (+/-350 miles, so that would be a quart every 600-700 miles) since I bought it with 35,000 miles on it. It's got about 80,000 on it now but there's been no change in oil consumption.

    $1500 Just two days. I found a great mechanic. Hardly anybody wanted to do it.
    I originally wanted a ring-job and NOBODY wanted to do that.Another shop wanted $2000 for motor swap.
