I paid $2000 shipped for a complete swap minus the transmission.  It should arrive Friday or next Monday.  Here are the pictures from the seller.  It has approximately 50-55k miles.  More pictures after the break.

Engine Swap Progress + New Parts

I went by Summit Racing to pickup their engine hoist.  It's somewhat pricey from the I have no more money left perspective but It is WELL worth it.  I will not be able to install the new gen3 engine without this, even though I was able to get old engine out without one.  I assembled the stand and went to work separating the gen2 from the transmission.  I'm doing this because I need to take it off to disassemble the gen2 so that I can part it out but I am reusing this transmission along with the clutch on the gen3 engine.
