I had to go through the same shxt. I went with a 40,000 mile 350z motor. It worked out good.

If its OC, you could just have a shop rebuild the engine with new internals.

search around you can find engines out of crashed cars for a couple grand. the jdm 350z motor will work as well just make sure its not a revup

$12k?

Seems like that's about what a new LS3 swap would cost.
