depends on what other work you do before fitting the new engine, cost me around £1500, buying a donnor car, mounts, shafts, gear shift shortener, lightend flywheel, lexmaul manifold, sports cat, drive shafts, rad and a few other bits. all new parts and changed cambelt kit.

Can do it on the cheap for about £400.
I would say if you want it to last and not be an old piece of shit 1k plus
