New belts, hoses, plugs and wires... still gonna save ya a ton over a unmatched swap

you sure the head is warped and not just a blown had gasket?

yeah I vote remanned head if you need one.

otherwise go 3800 II or LS1 + T-56
if you're going to swap motors, may as well make it worth the effort.

will a 3800 bolt up to my tranny? If its just motor mounts a new computer and maybe a harness id do that, probably just gonna put a junk yard 2.2 in it. Im looking to buy a grand prix gtp. for like 14000
