oh crankshaft issues? 8500? lol. Complete built longblock from TSE is 4500 after core refund. TSE turbo kit + MS3pnp + ebay intercooler kit = 4000 give or take...

Lets just hope he is going for 500whp! Everyone donate!

$8500 is probably about what a Mazda dealer would charge you if you took a '90 with a chewed up crankshaft there and asked them to put in a new engine.

If he really needed the car running he'd learn how to fix it and probably for 1/8th the price.

Send him a link to a job application and Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market to find himself a good used long block for sub $1000.
