Motor swap in a 1.8 16v

[rocco16v at netzero.net (L F)]

Think about it, der.   Rebuilding an engine will take X amount of time, whether that engine came out of your car or is already out of someone else's car.
 Of course, your car will be engine-less for fewer days if you rebuild a spare engine while you continue to drive the car.
You can get the lift-work done in fewer consecutive days if you have a rebuilt ready to go in as soon as the old one is pulled, that's easy to figure out.
So....what was your question again?

  I have a 87 vw scirocco 16v and I need to either swap the motor with a
  rebuild one or rebuild mine in the car.  Which one would be the less time
  consuming idea.  I have a spare motor in my garage on a engine stand with
  a rebuild kit sitting in my garage.  And I have a place with a lift and
  tools for 3 days.  I recently had a fuel problem with CIS-E and now my
  compression went from 150 to 110 so I need to rebuild the motor or swap
  it.  Please hit me back on this.
