get a 3.1 Turbo diesel out of an Isuzu and it should direct bolt(not sure but doubt if direct plug in) in your engine bay and up to your 4l30E Transmission. Much better power and way better mileage!!! and probably way more cost efficient than buying another stock POS engine that is crappy on mileage and under powered.

i am with joe_black on this one. find a new mechanic. there is no way you burned off 5.5 qt of oil (with no smoke). it leaked somewhere. and the crankcase would not fill up with pressure due to the pcv vavle stuck closed. there is another vent hose on the other valve cover with no pcv valve it would have vented there. the mechanic has no clue and is full of crap. get a new mechanic.if he cannot diagnose a problem then he sure doesn't know how to install an engine. shawn

I'm feeling Spazz---look at it as a door opening,a clean sheet of paper,a new adventure.
