Bought a car with higher miles 208XXX it was overheating and didn't get it home in time.... blew a headgasket. I love this car and got it for very cheap so I"m prepared to put money into and keep it long term. I"m trying to find a JDM longblock to put into it but running into trouble. I see earlier versions of the GS400 on ebay and on different JDM importers. What engine should I be looking for? Also anyone give me advice, the shop quoted me 3K for head gasket, and It looks like I should be able to get a JDM used short block for about 1k-1500? With labor runs me about $3500 but I'd get an engine I would feel good about get a timing belt changed etc etc and start somewhat fresh. Imput would be appreciated because I will have to make a decision when I get back from vacation Monday.
