well how much is a swap? like 1500-2000 or so? and you'd possibly get another beat down engine/tranny thats about to go bad. i say get a newer used tranny thats got low miles(should be pretty cheap) and use the rest of the money to get new aftermarket rods/pistons(new rings), bearings, headgasket and have a pretty much better than new engine that can be boosted a moderate amount with out worry.
