The car is a beauty and it handles better than anything I've ever owned so I'd seriously consider investing 15 to 20k in fixing for good this crazy security fubar fiasco.
For those who wish to change engines on their Crossfires there is a guy on YOUTUBE his screen name is driveway he took a cheap Crossfire and rebuilt it with the Chevy LS engine it may be of interest to those who may consider doing this. He is his own fabricator way outta my league but it can be done .He paid I think $600 for the Crossfire it had low miles a few ding and dents silver blue in color check him out. Hes not the most excited youtuber but he does get things done. wish I could afford to do this and create a Crossfire hybrid . if we don't get this figured out soon all our cars will end up in the junk heap one by one .
