interchangeable engines???

[SIZE=6][COLOR=White][FONT=Times New Roman]
HEYY i have a ??
my 99 max has 102,000 miles on it and i was wondering if it was wise to do engine mods to an engine with so many miles...? Also, are there any engines out there that can be interchanged with a 99 max?

ha, 102 is nothing! there are members on here who mod well over 150k and don't think twice. you can pick up a vq from 95-99's cheap. i don't think much changes, maybe a few sensors but nothing major. don't sweat 102 at all, consider it just broken in as long as you've maitained it.

Bolt ons like intake,exhaust, shouldn't be a problem for any engine, pretty much regardless of mileage. But if you're doing heavy mods like FI on the other hand, those mods do increase stress considerably.
