Theoretically it should be pretty straighforward. But in reality, it can open up a can of worms.
I'd rather have the present engine rebuilt back to specs by a competent engine rebuilding shop. Especially if you are not really into this car tuning, go-fast thing and just want a reliable daily driver.
But opinions vary.
May marerecommend ka na shop o mas o.k. pa rin kung sa casa?:)
If you're changing for performance, go ahead, but if this is a daily car, having a swapped engine can either be painless or a pain in the ass.
Parang bingo mag-swap ng surplus engine. Suwerte kung suwerte, hindi kung hindi. If you're unlucky, you might have sensor or wiring problems with the new engine. If you're really unlucky, you might even have to overhaul the new engine. But if you're lucky... you're lucky. :grin:
Still, for the time, effort and cost, you can usually overhaul your old engine anyway.
