I have a 1994 S10 pu with 2.2L.
Started to get ticking sound from head.
My mechanic feels it need a new lifter "$800"
or "Might need new engine"

Question 1 - Does $800 sound right?

Question 2- It's a 5 speed Manual. Could I slip a used or crate 4.3L in there and what kind of modifications would I have to do.?

Thanks
