Exactly, I say if you have the money go for the Euro 3.2 motor. IF not get a 3.2 and add Cams, euro intake, and Euro HFM with headers. This will get you above the 300hp mark! If not just add a DASC to your m44 or M42 and call it a day. Motor swaps are not for the weak at heart as something will always come up. I have swapped my motor 3 times now, and nothing has ever went as planned. Although I feel like the latest swap of a 3.2 was a lot easier and well worth it to me as I got a brand new motor and tranny. And I know the car inside out after watching this thing being swapped.
