Have you pulled your plugs? sounds like you fried them too and your turning the engine over and just spitting the gas out the back end.

My fan hasn't been working since last year probably, when it goes up over half way on the temp gauges I turn the heat on max. Alway goes back down...

I'm going to be honest with you. It sounds like you know absolutely nothing about engines.

You have no idea what is wrong with your current one but you want to know how hard it would be to throw in an older engine into your car. If you have to ask, it's too hard for you. And 9 question marks is a little much, one should work.

Check the freaking spark plugs, replace them. See if it starts. You need fuel, spark, and air to make boom. Check them.

You would have to swap the transmission and re-wire your car. Not an easy route. OR, buy an ecotec with transmission and stick that in + supercharger. Much better then an almost 20 year old engine that had poor reliability as is.

That check would go a long way toward paying someone else to do it. Who knows, they might even give you a deal if you curse them out too.
