I think you should have stuck with the SOHC. With the issues you will have in converting your vehicle from one engine to the other it will probably wipe out any savings you got with this one. Plus, why buy an engine that won't work without the purchase of additional parts? I'd keep looking if I were you. Also, please correct me if I am wrong, but won't you have to buy a new ECM for it all to work as well?

I would find all this out before buying this engine, if it already isn't too late.

Good luck!!!!!
