i just did a swap in my el, engine cost $570, 6mnth warranty. do it yourself, $400, someone else $800, though if you do it yourself you can also make sure it's done correctly and cleanly

If you keep torque converter in, so the seal is not broken..
You should replace oil, filter..
There should be no other costs ?? Unless there was something needing maintenance that
you didn't know about.. Like engine mounts ...
A few hose clamps, new ignition wires and coolant ??
