OP- I thought about picking one up, but decided to put the $$ into my SS to fix a few things. There are a crap load on craigslist for 1000-1500 if you look around. I've heard that the 1.6 gets better mpg than the 1.8. And the newer ones get about the same as our LS1's

there was a 4cly, 5speed, 96 Chevy S10 that sparked my interest not to long ago. was asking like $2750
they get like 32mpg on the freeway, swap the 3.73's out for 2.73's or 3.08's might be able to get 36-40 on the freeway.
But i feel you when gas hits $5 a gallon in July...... well ya my impala will be spending time in the garage.
