I think you have the right idea replacing it will be cheaper than rebuilding. With the prices you showed there are cheaper places to find engines I know a guy in Dallas that has a 7MGTE for like 400 bucks ECU and everything.
cheaper? 350 for the engine, i dont need the ecu or anything, he has it i just dont need it.. than i am having him put the engine together with a metal headgasket, whole engine replacement is 700bux with labor out the door, thats cheap as FUCK
