I say don't do it, unless you don't care a ton about your car and it's not a daily driver you count on as reliable transportation.

...Well, you can either go with a built shortblock from VT or go ahead and drop a 32V in there to replace your blown motor

Listen to these guys...I wouldn't do it. You'll be looking for a new motor in no time if you do.

173k miles! No juice over 100k miles in my opinion, and you are approaching 200k miles, so thats a for sure no on the juice.

I look at it this way - if you can afford to be without your car, then juicing is not an issue. if you can afford to buy a new motor, then juicing is not a problem.

Otherwise..
