the two things that don't work is:
1) one bolt hole needs to be helicoiled
2) one bolt hole you just can't do anything about.
everything else is bolt on.
to op:
it depends what i want to do and what i consider as a replacement engine. thanks to toyota and its multi-compatibility: anywhere in the range of 500-5000 for just the motor.

Lol no way, I guess you've been doing a lot more research than me :P I've just been looking at 3Ses a lot lately, especially since our trip to KO.

If my 4AGE blew up, I'd just move up to a 20-valve 4AGE Blacktop... can typically be found on eBay for $1500~ USD + shipping. Not bad, actually.

Long blocks are $200 at PickaPart.
I'd drop $1500-2000 on a K-series, though.

In terms of a V6, I've driven a 1MZ/3MZ one, with a 3MZ longblock and 1MZ parts, and rode in a 2GR powered one. Both go like stink, but the 2GR is definitely the one to go with, and there's a complete adapter kit that lets you pretty much drop it in to the MR2 bay. You need to come down to a coffee meet one of these days, immorality is always taking people for joyrides in his 2GR MR2. Needless to say, I hated driving my 3S back home LOL. | I really want to do a 3MZ into my Celica GTS since it's a pretty easy swap for the FWD Celicas, the GTFour I've given myself some limitations on mods so I think it'll be a 2g 3S for life. I'd love to come down to a met but it's a bit of a trek for me haha, if I'm ever in Van I'll swing by.

$2500 for a reman engine, or go down to the states and probably find one for ~$1000 but unknown mileage
