RE: New Owner
 

For the money you'll [probably] end up paying for the work you listed (unless you do your own wrenching), you'd be better off/happier in the end if you just did something simple like an SI head swap or a fairly inexpensive swap like a ZC.

I was thinking an SI head i found 1 on ebay but its a 1.6 liter and my hatch is a 1.5 so will it work

RE: New Owner
 

might want to get that headgaskit dun fast...lots of possiblitlys for the motor, if you wanted to do a swap check out the swap section near the bottom of the forum
