You will need to price in the labour as well?
Unless you are up for it yourself.
But putting in a new engine is not for sissies.
I have been led to believe that the engines are not all the same, even if it was previously inside another patrol, manufactured at a different plant.
So it may not be as simple as take out and put in?
