    Parts for those LSJs aren't to expensive as well

    I wanted to put one in my Grand Am... but too much work than I'm willing to do

    I think that's the problem most people run into. It is a LOT of work to do an engine swap, especially from an engine that wasn't intended to be in a specific vehicle.

    It was easy back in the 60's when everything was carburated, but now with Direct injection, and vehicle specific PCM's, it becomes more of a challenge.
