Super-vague. What condition is your engine in, and what condition is the one you're pulling off in?

How bout you just invest your money in a car that runs properly. If he says its running off three cylinders, how do you know what else is wrong with it? Sounds like a decision that would most likely regret.

That was gonna be my next suggestion. Probably be better off to swap in a b series or an h series.
