wassup guys! got a quick question. i have an 86 lx carbed. and its got over 270k on it. engine is just done. also i have about 2 g's in the bank to add to just the engine alone.

what i need to know is. .
If you had the cash would you buy a rebuilt engine for it? (about $500)
would you swap it with something else? if so what would you put in it?
Its either replace/rebuild or get another car.

any suggestions would be great.
thanks!

if it was me i would get either an 88-89 lxi and either sell/part out the 86. you could even switch out parts from the 86 to your new one if you ever need to.

Hmm, Id get the rebuilt motor and swap it in myself...

if you decide to go efi it's cheaper to buy and efi car but then you'll have a whole new car with all new problems.

There was the possibility of a B16 swap not too long ago but now the mounts are not sold and you'll still need to upgrade your fuel system to handle EFI.
