Agreed,
  As Brett says, there are MANY people out there looking for the
same motor.  Supply vs Demand.  thats WHY they sell for $3,000. 
:-)   
  Also, with 91' 200's available for $6,000 or less in good
shape, why bother with a swap.  There have got to be PLENTY of
cheap crankshafts out there for you to use.  I have a 4kq crank
your welcome to.  Not sure if its identical or not.  
  Just spend minimal money rebuilding it or swap in another MC.
