I found one that's pretty nice but the person said it may need spark plugs. Does this mean it's burning oil? Is it an easy fix? How much will it cost me?

Welcome to SHO Forum!!

I think the person is saying the engine is missing or maybe it is time for 60k service.

You need to remove intake manifold to get easy access to the spark plugs.

This link shows how to remove the intake.

As far as cost, it shouldn't be that much. Spark plugs are rather cheap compare to other stuff for SHO..

P.S. It might be missing because there's oil in spark plug wells. If that's the case, you will need to do upper 60k service.

Lets hear a little bit more.
How many miles, what year, what is the service history (that you can find out from the owner).

93 atx mtx swap

Would it be worth buying an atx then getting an mtx tranny? How much would it cost me and where can I find one.

That would cost you a lot of money and labor. I don't know how much it would cost you, but a rebuilt tranny, clutch mechanism, and things like that will cost you quite bit. You would be better off buying mtx right away and do 3.2 swap if you want.
