Yes, this sounds logical, and as t walmaguth had mentioned, I have even thought about possibly buying the same car on the west coast and shipping it for around $900 (would be about $400 over the price of just shipping the engine alone) , swapping motors and keep the other car for spare parts. That is, if I could find the same car at a reasonable price. Not too far out of the quesion.
Gonna look this weekend at the engine damage, and see if there is anything obvious....
