Hey guys I have jus a quick question. I have a 90 max and my engine is just about hit the fan. My friend has a 2nd gen Max that he can see me for like 400. Will I be able to swap engines i.e. the head of the engine. Also what else can I swap out of it that will fit w/o a problem?????

You can get a VG30 for your year car for $400 or less also. I'd do that.
