IMO - I would find a good 5.4 to put in it.. But if you want to keep it a 4.6 you can find them at these links as well..

Search eBay.

Check out - http://www.karkraft.com/

http://www.jasperengines.com/

You can type in your vehicle here and they locate an engine for you close to your zip code - great site , found lots of parts this way pretty cheap -

3200 isn't a good deal - it's prolly fair if the guys good..Lots of variables. You can find a motor and have someone install it cheaper..Just a thought..

Good Luck
