If you dont want to pay, you cant play. Power costs money. The fact that you wont use the search button to find your answer worries me that you wont be able to do an engine swap. You should replace with the exact same engine if you want the cheapest and worry free install out there.

You cant just change engines like you change the laces on your shoes.
