If you can get the car for under 5K ship it here and we'll rebuild your engine. I must warn you though it will be a tad more powerful.
Sure - if all you want is a hone and new rings - but if your going to pay to replace all the components in the engine to factory tolerances (timing gears/chains/crank/cams/rods/pumps etc...) - it's going to cost $$ - no matter what engine. Remember - these are for MB not Chevy's.
Besides - Lots of 3.2L drop-in engines out there on Ebay and LKQ for around $2K - I found 18 engines
