Alright so my cars been out of commission for a good while now. I finally decided to fix her and I was told it was the head gasket.

The mechanic I talked to said it would cost me some $500 to just replace the gasket. And if I wanted to fix( I don't recall if he said replace of fix) the head it would cost some $950.

I want to know if I should go with the $500 which I have or the $950 job that I need to borrow money to get done.

It's a 91 GS.

 

well... truth be told... you could get a new engine for that... a working one... I say do that... spend an extra 2 grand and get a gsr or, just get another newer ls... but dont waste that much money on tht old of an engine...

 

yeah go with the gsr engine....$950 is to much to spend on an old engine...u could get a newer LS engine for prob 1500...look around man

 

When I first got it they said it had some 90K miles, but if I could find a engine for cheaper and with less miles I'll go for that.

Anyone know any sites where I could get one? Thanks for the answers.

Found this site with a quick search. Engine

 

well... check here on han... ebay, and I'm sure you can find them at other places... they arent tht hard to find... heck even look for a b20... just use the teg intake mani...

 

I checked out Ebay and seen this one:

Engine

The others were like missing parts or not for my car.

I'm not clueless about cars, but I need to brush up on a couple things.

 

looks god... still need a better trans though...

 

Hmm. I'm sure I could find one around here. There are a lot of Asians around here(not being trying to be stereotypical) but I think I could find one they have.

Also why trans?

 

Where is around here? Maybe if you tell us where your from, someone locally could suggest a place for you to check out. Just a thought.

 

Oh sorry about that, I'm living in Rowland Heights, CA right now.
