Swap options and cost for a 95 GT convert Options

[m2736185]

I recently purchased a 95 GT convertible, but she has 175k miles on her so I have been thinking about my swap options. I intend to ride her until she stops running and hopefully I get atleast another 25k. I am very interested in the 3SGTE swap, but I hear there will be some need for modification. I am on a $2,000 budget for the swap some added power and turbo would be nice, but if its too much trouble then I proly would just rebuild my engine myself and send out my tranny to be rebuilt.

engines must be expensive over there as $2k or £1400 would be plenty to do the swap to a 3sgte here, but then i suppose gt4 engines are more available here>??
