Avoid GEX!! You'd be better off getting a used junkyard beetle engine from a smash up, swap the heads (FI bosses are needed from T3), then bolt it up with all the associated accessories from the old engine. You just need a "medium" block with no heads, really.  Probably cost you 75 bones and a few labor hours if your current engine really is shot.

That should keep it running until you 96volt-it.  Tell us how that conversion goes.  I considered it but went T4...due out of the shop any day now!
