My 93 2600i is going to need a rebuild soon...but I have found a 2.0 (engine and 5 speed tranny) that has only 23,000 miles on it since it was rebuilt. It already has the weber carb and pacesetter header.

I would be switching from FI to Carb and from Auto to Manual. So should I rebuild the 2.6 or put the 2.0 in? Thanks in advanced...

I'm out in the West Side of Atlanta...Douglasville.

By the way - Thanks for all of the responses and help/info. Looks like I am going to rebuild the 2.6 FI engine.
