Fixed your post, there, Dan.
madj80, $1600 for labor?!?!
If they take their time and spend all day changing the engine out for a nice 100,000 mile one, they SHOULD charge about eight hours labor.
You should be able to buy a used engine from a junkyard for maybe, $500?
You could save some money by replacing your own sparkplugs and some hoses when your replacement motor is sitting on the ground.
When it is out of the car it's actually easy.
