The Metrics DO come with an IP, head and all the usual long block items.
No turbo though. It would only make sense to splurge and get a $900 rebuilt turbo with a new engine.
....
OK, I have been swayed off the Metric idea for sure. On to the used engine adventure! Ill go for anything sub 200k that looks good. Already mated to a good running transmission a major plus, but not necessary.
Ill probably wait a year to do this anyways - its not an emergency and I dont have proper facilities. Come September I am in grad school again, during which I have barely enough time to do basic living activities...
