I've got a crank, head and connecting rods that I'm willing to sell. You can pick up a gasket kit for about $250, bearings for $80, and rings for $100. It would be cheaper in the long run to rebuild or replace your EG33 than it would be too swap in an EZ.
Just my .02.

Yeah, i did some experiments in the past and is not fun stuff, you are right, i prefer to avoid that headache. I'll be better trying to find a working EG33.
Dont you have a complete engine for sale? The thing is that i am not happy with the idea of rebuilding an engine that was disassembled by someone else 5 years ago, i just have 6 boxes full of engine parts, some of them corroded by being in a humid place for months, neglected (theres even a bit of a head that is broken), even the A/c compressor is frozen and white of aluminium rust, the alternator and starter can be saved (hopefully)
, i dont even know if i have all the bolts and stuff. The little details sometimes are more difficult to solve than the big ones.

I'll send you a PM later. We might be able to work something out.

I would prefer a complete engine, even with coils and injectors, so is more plug-and-play.
If you have an extra engine laying around let me know. Thanks!
