2006 TL engine swap

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone out there has faced rebuilding the 3.2L (limited options on parts) versus swapping for a 3.5 out of another vehicle (Odessey?). My block is not rebuildable due to too much wear in the sleeves, and the stock pistons and rings are outrageous (900 for pistons, 600 for rings). Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

www.car-part.com for a used engine. As far as I know the J35s have a different bell housing that won't bolt up to the 06 tranny.
