where should i start my search for a beams engine?(ive found one on rpm garage just trying to find more then just one option)
what are the most common issues?
are parts available in the u.s.?
are they reliable compared to the regular n/a motor?
ive found that theres a diffrence between the red top and grey top but i could never find anything as to what was the difference.
could i use the transmission from my 5sfe or a 3sgte or can you only use that transmission.
if your going to go on a search button rant please dont even post. im only looking for information about the beams motor not how to use the search button.
k thx

Shop around, make offers on motors even if it is $500 under asking price.
I got mine for $1100 shipped to my door and it is a red top with a helical LSD trans.
Make sure you get a B pipe and that the VVti controller is removed and sent in a secure package. (These break and are not cheap or easy to find) They hang precariously off the side of the motor.
Make sure you get a MAF
