    Yeah I'll definitely let you know. I'm hopefully getting the engine soon next week.

    I'm in Ontario, Barrie specifically QUICK, you?

    I was going to build up two motors (3100 High Compression and a 3400/3500 hybrid High Compression). Needless to say I also went the way of the complete 3500, as I was able to get two low mileage 3500 engines dropped off at my house for $555.00. Low mileage = 9,000 on one and 26,000 on the other.

    Deals are out there, sometimes hard to find depending on what part of the country you live in. But over all the complete 3500 swap was a more economical choice than having a motor rebuilt.

    Edit: BTW I have a house too... the only problem is that they never build them with a big enough garage.

    I can buy a COMPLETE 3500 with 8k on it for $400... One would be sitting on my engine stand if I didn't just buy a damn house.

    Who the heck in Ontario is selling the 3500's for $350?

    I don't want to steal yours, but if there is another I'm going to grab one.

    Hamilton checking in!

    As far as where to get an O2 sensor, I'd look at Rock Auto.. Using the discount code posted on this site I just recently got 1 shipped for $41.xx for my 99 3100. SparkPlug .com has good prices also. There is a link to Denso.com (pretty sure) from the SparkPlug.com Main page.. They were a bit more than Rock Auto..
    I thought the price was good for my car,,, don't know about a 3500 O2 sensor...
    Just my 2 cents,,
    Good luck,,
    Tom..
