aright, i just got back into town from good ole psu,
and saw that a debate had taken place over the engine
swap/mpg issue.
here is my take:

if you do the conversion yourself, and have 2gs lying
around, get the conversion done.

if you don't do the conversion yourself and have 8-9gs
lying around get the conversion done.

if you're like me and got a loan out for about 10gs
and it just covered the conversion(i didn't do it
myself for lack of mechanical experience at the
time)..do something else.

for the mpg issue, you won't get more mpg out of any
other engine unless you are running a gas/electric
hybrid with a 3cyl geo metro engine and a rack of
batteries.

oh yeah, i was getting around 15mpg with my v-6
comversion(built for power not economy) before the
tranny went out.

imnsho= in my not so humble opinion
