My fiance's 2000 Chevy Cavalier needs a new engine. He seems determined to fix and keep the car. It has about 150,000k mi. and he's already put new water pump , battery and had existing head gasket repaired. It was overheating and now he's found an engine on the internet, I think the company is called Everready or something. The engine and installation cost about 2,900 and they guarentee the engine for 3 yrs. I just want to make sure he isn't getting ripped off. He said they have been in business for 30 yrs and we could check with Auto Zone .

Pete still owes 1,700.00 on the car loan and so since he has to pay that off he feels fixing the car is best

Please help with your expertiseas he's planning on getting this by the weekend.

Many thanks,

Jane

You may want to look up the book value on the car as it seems that you will be investing quite a bit more money than the car is worth...consider that the transmision also has 150000 miles on it as well. You might find a wrecked cavalier for 2to3 hundred dollars and as long as the engine is running you can swap in the other engine for the cost of the labor. then you will have a spare car for parts Pat
