Which 1uz would you pick?
Im buying a motor in the next 2 days. I have norrowed it down to these.
1) (Local) - Long block, no ac, pwr steering, etc, must use old ones - has wireharness - 92K miles $475 + gas for 100 mile round trip
2) Complete longblock minus pwr steering and maybe manifolds - has harness - 82K miles - Gaurunteed not to be garbage - $750 shipped
3) Complete long block w/ ac, pwr steering, accesoiries, manifolds, wireharness, ecu - 62k miles - start up and running video and pictures - motor sounds good. $1000 shipped
Keep in mind I will be rebuilding my old motor with new internals etc, so the cores off the accessories will be nice to have.
I will be also boosting the stock motor too in 1 year. the built motor wont be done for a few years.

ble....all this 1JZ 2JZ talk....dont listen to them!!!
go with Number 3 sounds most informed and well documented. 62k means it isnt even broken in yet...
what year engine is number 3? i know that the OBDII motors have higher comp ratios (10.4 compared to 10.0 on OBDI) also when you say boost do u mean turbos or a supercharger?
