Answer
Hi Charles, I don't have access to a parts book so what I would suggest is calling your local Cadillac parts department and ask that year engines will fit in your '93. They might even have a low budget rebuilt engine that would be in your price range. Otherwise the site junkyarddog.com would be a good one to check out. They have yards from across the country and can give prices and ship to your driveway all you need to do is enter some info and get ready for lots of responses. Hope that helps. Bill
