You'll want to replace the engine with the exact engine that is in there now to save on costs. They are trending around $800 on average shipped to your house. Then you will have to pay for installation. Figure another $1000 to $1500 to remove the old, and install the new and any new parts. The reason the mechanics barely looked at it, is the car is worth no more than $1K. Do you want to go through all this trouble and spend $2500 or more fixing it and the most you can get for it if you have to sell it, right after you fixed it is $1500? Maybe you want to look for something newer?
