Is this a trick question??? LOL

First..., take your street adress down from the screen. Second..., You get what you pay for when it comes to engines. Three..., You live in California, you already know nothing is cheap there.

The good news is you have options. The bad news none of them are inexpensive or cheap.

You would be better off keeping the engine in the car if the block is not damaged. If it is, remember one thing. There's a reason every used engine for sale is not slinging rubber from the a$$ end of a supra already.

So save your money and get the engine you want. Strip the engine bay and tear somethings down so you'll have a clue as to how it goes back together.

Get a TSRM, toyota supra repair manual. They are engine specific and cost about 75 bucks. This is the book the actual toyota techs use when they work on YOUR $hit.

While your'e seeking an engine you can clean the bay and make space to rebuild whatever engine you go with if you want to have any shot at it lasting before you install it.

For God Sakes Man..., Run as fast as you can, AWAY from anything JDM.
