I hit 100k miles about a week ago, I have ALWAYS ran regular maintenance, oil changes frequently, and took exceptional care of the car. It was bought new at a dealer 8 years ago. I check my oil levels regularly also, and have never ran with a low amount of oil. Now my car suffers a serious loss of power to the motor, and I'm afraid to drive it to the shop, and have the problem get even worse lol... How much should i be spending on a new engine without labor? how much should labor run?

Well, I'm selling a Series III 3800 with transmission. Either swap the UIM for the nylon UIM and your original throttle body or adapt a L67 throttle body to the Series III aluminum UIM. Otherwise, this should drop right in....
