? Any I was asking about a swap because I have 2 good friends that run a local repair shop who said they would help with the swap, which in reality means they would be doing most of it. I was asking to get a feel on how tough it would be for them.

For me, the difference in power between the 2 engines is very noticeable, particularly as I live in a fairly hilly region. The torque difference is night and day. And thus far, for the few days I have been driving the SR as my daily driver, it even seems to be getting better mileage than my 95 LS. I will know for sure at the end of this week.

As for the window, I have never attempted to fix one, and it's been my luck in the past that when I tried to fix something, I ended up breaking something else. The AC compressor pulley is frozen, which is likely why the belt was removed.

Sadly I am one of the less mechanically inclined folks. Major repairs are out of my league, so if I don't have the money to have it repaired , it doesn't get fixed. I can do smaller stuff like radiators, shocks, sway bars, brake pads,calipers etc.

I appreciate your comments very much , sasnydley. I have taken them on-board.

Off topic, I see you are in the Sarasota area. I grew up there. Went to Wilkinson Brookside and Riverview. What part do you hail from?
