I have had real bad luck with a shop building/replacing engines in my S14 Race Car. I need to start from scratch. I want to have a reliable KA Motor put back in the car and actually enter and finish a race. The last 3 times the engine temp spiked and the bearings got fried. Subsequent rod know followed and I am left with yet another shot motor.
I am considering a few courses of action:
1. just getting a junk motor or one removed from a car for an SR20 swap, low mileage if I can find one and try and install it myself. About $500-$1400.
2. Get a rebuilt motor from a reputable source (Top Hat or AMS Performance) feel free to make suggesstions. Since most of these motors are set for boost, I could have a "Stock" motor built, maybe add some cams. $3-4,000
3. Try and find a destroyed car with a good engine so I can fire it up and know that it works BEFORE I put it in, remove it and install it, junk the scrap or keep some spares. $1000 and up.
I welcome any thoughts or ideas, please.
