Yeah if I have a few good months production @ work I'll be looking to to get the engine replaced.

I'm not even sure if I need the entire engine replaced but why the hell not if if I had to rebuild half of it.

Who knows what else is jacked up inside...

But I don't think I'm planning on doing any 3.5 because I don't really know what I need or how much more it's going to cost.

Mechanically...

Well shat...I just need to know the breakdown of parts I need to replace my engine.

What I can re-use from my old setup...water pump, cr@p like that...

Just seems overwhelming.

Dont reuse the water pump.

Refresh my memory - the oil pan was destroyed right and it caused oil starvation?

Ok. Good to know about the water pump. Mental note...

Yeah. Oil starvation is one way to think of it. lol

I replaced the oil pan already and it does hold oil but doesn't have oil pressure which could be several reasons.

Just wanting to replace the motor anyways since it already had 90k on it.

And if I can easily replace it with a 3.5 then why the hell not...

Ok...for some reason I never found this thread.

https://acurazine.com/forums/2g-cl-frequently-asked-questions-52/3-5-liter-hybrid-build-information-714305/

Any thing missing from this info. that I would need to know?

I guess what I can re-use and can't re-use is unknown.

Man...the CL is fucked...

Peeked on the car to check if any body decided to do any other damage or key it again...

Then, I noticed some fucking mold in the interior...seats, door panels...seriously!
