Get a used or new block and use the good parts from your motor to re-build....you are still looking at 1000s of $$ for a re-build...don't bother with another engine IMO.

E55 motor can be made to fit but even more $$$ and fab work to make it work. Plus you flush whatever value your 92' car has in it in doing that...but if you poop money then go for it !!
