<< So do I look for a 2.0L in junk yard and have it rebuilt, do I look for a new one (Is there such a thing)?

What am I looking at as far as money goes and What can I sell the 1600 for? I have the paper work from when it was put in Mexico. I'll post some info on that later, because I have questions about it. >> My guess is that you will also need th FI stuff as it is probably missing. As such, i would look for a wrecked van or a motor with all the FI stuff on it. At that point, you can determine it's condition and either use it, rebuild it, or exhange for a rebuilt engine as you will probably need a core to buy one.
