Message	I was told by a few shops that it would be more costly to rebuild the engine than to replace it. Also, Does anyone know of some good shops around the Chicago area that can do either? The car is at "Ultimate Z" now being diagnosed. They say it will cost me around $2K to replace with a good used motor, and double that if I want to rebuild my existing motor. It's not a daily driver since I live in Chicago, so I only drive it for a few months out of the year.
