The rear main seal leak isn't that big of a deal. Hardest thing is just getting to it. It is actually a common thing to happen on 5ohs.

First off, how many miles does your engine/car have on it? I personally like to stick with the original engine, but if yours is about to go, then of course you should get a new one. So it kind of depends.

If you were to spend that much, definately go with the one for 3200 dollars. You would spend way more than 400 to get the additional 75 horses.

Also, how many miles would you like to get out of this engine? Also, would the car be a daily driver or more like a weekend warrior?

Thanks,
