Are you leaving it auto? or converting to manual
Oodles of costs involved there
Then factor in $100+ for oils and filters
New plugs, possibly new leads (if it doesnt run coil packs, I have no idea)
Rebuild starter/alt/ps if you choose to.
$100+ for belts (timing/alt)
Maybe a new water pump
Thermostat
Radiator service/new radiator
Many many bolts that will be missing.
Radiator hoses
Heater hoses
air intake piping
Factor in a few $100's for things that could be broken on the motor (sensors, anything plastic)
New fuel filter/bigger pump (if required)
Gaskets gaskets, more gaskets, and an entourage of seals
Hose clamps
The list goes on, things you wont even dream off will pop up when you least expect them
Things like, hiring of engine hoist, purchase of engine stand, bits that are missing etc etc etc
