Default RE: expo engine swap-what will fit?

I took it in for an inspection and it passed. It runs ok, but it looks like I'm going to have to replace the waterpump sooner then later because it leaves a 1 foot dia. spot of coolent under it in 24 hours. The check engine light comes on half the time. I think I'll just take the bulb out when I need another insp. My brother works for NAPA and told me to add a waterpump lubricant to it (which they just happen to sell) so I'll try that first. The motor does shake a little without the balance shafts but its not an issue. I'll be back with any new developments.

I went ahead and replaced the water pump, didn't want to risk the head gasket I just put on. I noticed small cracks in the top of the radiator, it was seeping coolent so I replaced it too. $150 new from 1-800-radiator, I thought that was a good deal! It doesn't leak anything anymore and itruns pretty good. For about $1300.00 total I have a minivan that should last a few years. Thanks for the help everyone!
