i can MAYBE get a hold of a free klze engine, but it will be the emarican one, is it worth doing the swap or should i save money and get the japenese one ?

If its American, it will be the KL-DE. Anything is worth it if its free, but is it worth your time and effort to actually get it into the car? It all depends on what you want. If it were me I'd probably wait for a ZE.

0-60 should be slitghtly better then the 0-60 times Probe GTs get.
At the 1/4mile your car should be able to run low to mid 15s. With a KLZE it can be low to high 14s.
Of course, depending on your mods.
K8 (MX3 stock engine) 130hp/115ft torque
KLDE 160/160
KLZE 200/160

If you are getting a free klde try and get a Millenia motor, 170hp/160tq and it will have the curved neck Intake for an easy install.
thants just me though.

If your getting a free DE, DEFANTLY take it. Why not? As long as it's in better shape that your current K8 that is. How many km's?
Take the free engine, and all the money you'd spend on a KLZE, put it into a turbo setup or some nitrous, or alot of bolt ons. You can take the winter to build it up.
