Thanks for the open arms welcome.

I am planning on rebuilding the V6 if its salvageable.
Just be aware of the fact that many rebuild parts are either hard or impossible to find. Also, be aware that these V6 engines are nearly bulletproof as long as they're not revved much past 3200 RPM and have regular oil changes. A friend here has one with over 600,000 miles on it without an overhaul. Yours may need nothing more than a thorough internal cleaning if it's been sitting long.
