I am now in need of a motor for my 96 talon. So I have been doing some searching on the net.
I found one on GatewayDSM, JDM for $700.00.
Or go this route of rebuild rebuilt motor
If anyone has a better or cheaper way, I am open to opinions.

Thanks, Bud!

miami and goat put it a lot better than I ever could have!

I think your #1 priority is getting that motor running. Basically, build it the best you can with what you have available. If all you can afford is a quality stock rebuild, so be it. If you've got some left for forged pistons and rods, don't let any of us stop you. Just don't cheap out on some things (head gasket, arp head bolts, for example) so you can put forged internals in it.
