If you can get one with K8 heads, it'll work. Otherwise, I like my idea of getting a KLDE crank and KLDE rods and putting them in your K8 engine for a 2.2 liter engine. I bet you can get the parts from an American on Probetalk.com for $100 total and then pay shipping .... would be pretty heavy weight on the crank, though.

sounds nice but with shipping and tax it will cost about 250 to 300€ minimum that´s about 300 to 360 $. but maybe i´ll find some in ebay germany
thanks for this tip
