Y61 4.5 and 4.8 are completely different cars. To replace engine means to replace not only engine, but the computer and harness as well, eventually gear box, which may effect the whole traction tract and differentials. Only engine on the market is around 25K. Better you sell and buy new or repair your current engine.

Yes, Chief is right, If u have a budget of 25k, then its worth the effort!
I Suggest take it to garage & get it checked by the Experts, so that u know the faults in 4.5 & how much to fix it.
Try to speak with my friend & garage owner in sharjah, Mr Rafaqat 0554453717 & I am Azeem, give him my reference. Good Luck!

Ad 1 - yes
Ad 2 - No, it will cost much more, approx. double, as you will discover other parts and bushings to be replaced and additionally buying second hand engine will demand also some parts to be replaced also in the engine itself, plus cost for the labour.
Ad 3 - Check with the shop Abna Dimashq, 065423060
