Most cars in Aus with a crook motor are either scrapped or a wrecker or Japanese import used engine is fitted. Both reconditioned or "remanufactured" (a label to justify a higher price) engines are simply too expensive even in short block form unless for a vintage/racer or classic car where the car is worth $30K+ We have half a dozen high volume workshops locally who bung in either wrecker used or used Japanese import engines .....otherwise such cars would be economic wrecks.

Learn how to rebuild a engine yourself. The old red motors can/could handle that. 2nd jag a car/model that still runs hassle free/smoothly on its original motor after 400 thou clicks Possibly jagged it.
