Puting a ver 5 in a ver 4 is not straightforward.
Stick with a ver 3 or 4 for your car.
You could get a price and delivery from API Engines and Roger Clark Motorsport to name but two.
If you rebuild your own engine then you know what you have.
You may also want to investigate the cost of a 2.5 short engine on to which your existing heads and ancillaries will fit. If you want a 2.5 widen your enquiry to include Scoobymania.
