I really couldn't tell you if its a good deal or not.... I also have no idea what would be involved in such an operation.

Few things you should consider before plunking your money down on a new engine:

1. Are you doing the swap yourself?
If you are, be sure you have the tools to complete it correctly. If you are paying someone else to do it, be sure you have the funds to cover the expense. (Which could get a bit high)

2. Are you prepared for any down time that the car will experience while its being worked on?

To be honest, an entire engine swap for 45 hp (215 to 260 stock) seems a bit much for me, but it is your vehicle....

Just keep in mind that there are cheaper, less intensive ways to get the outcome you may be looking for...
