Well, you said 2000 and up. That limits you to a 2001 or 2003-04. There is a big range in price between the two, both in initial cost for motor/tranny and what would be needed for the swap.

i was thinking about it and well if the engine costs me around 10g's US and i pay for it to be installed im still not near the amount a 04 cobra costs which is about 54,000 Canadian plus taxes......
