IMO you are better off repairing one than buying a used one as they all have the same problems.

( IMS and bore score )

This is why buying a used engine is a HUGE gamble as they all suffer from the same congenital birth defects

What happened to the motor? You might be better off building this motor properly than buying a used motor. Or buying a fresh rebuilt core and putting the peripherals on. The ‘06’s now are nearly 18 years old. Not only that but a good used motor and a fresh rebuilt core are almost the same price. Why gamble with an unknown used motor?
