I'd rebuild it. A rebuilt engine will be better than new, and probably cheaper. Think about it- If you rebuild, you'l use all stronger parts- forged rods and pistons, stiffer valvesprings, etc, etc- where as if you just replaced, you'd have the stock internals.

As for your idling problem, try adjusting the IACV on the throttle body- it should fix your problem. If it doesn't, just replace the EACV. It'll take all of half an hour and cost you maybe $50.

he said that he does not know too much about engine internals, so that means that the labor is gonna kill him (pricewise) plus a h23 is about $1600 with about 30k miles on it. a new engine set is 500-600 (pistons, rings, pins), the rods are another $400-600, but hey his engine is gonna kick some major ass.
