its not the engine you are paying 3-7k for, it is the labour and sourcing things like fuel pumps and ecu's etc! dont talk about 4a-ge's like they r crap, believe it or not 4a-ge's came in other newer cars, so not all of them are "20 yrs old" it is a proven engine, and if you are serious then rebuild it! or that might be a bit pricey!  , simple rule ( there are exceptions ) u get what u pay for! good luck
