I tell you here it's hard to find a crashed vehicle for a decent price, especially a Montero; maybe you can find one at the insurance auctions. The junkyards sell Montero stuff as if it was gold, and it's not very common to find Montys at junkyards.

About 6 months ago I saw a crashed pre 2003 DI-D Montero parked outside a house, engine looked intact, so I stopped to ask about it, but it was already sold...

I think the best alternative is to buy one of those japanese import engines.
