I have a 1996 ST and I am having a hard time deciding to either rebuild the 7A-FE engine in right now with a good 263,000 miles on it or to at least try and find a good 3S-GTE engine. I'm not a big genious about the engine and everything quite yet, so I need some opinions about how to maximize the engine power in the 7A-FE or just get a swapped 3S-GTE. I just want a car that will be quick and depenable, so I want to put the best under the hood. Also price estimates for both a rebuild and swap would be extrememly helpful. Tell me anything that should be done to help my car get a lot better under the hood.
Thank you, opinions and information will help me understand a little more about these sweet 6G cars!!! -Seth |

I def. need to learn a crap load more before I do anything to the engine but the car needs something done to it in the Spring and that is my deadline, so what would be the best bet in your opinion? |
