Get a 2.4l engine out of a 89 sonata. Not a 4g64, that is a 7 bolt version. The sonata's have a 6 bolt 4g63. I believe they run around $200-400 for the whole engine depending on where you find it. I have seen them go for $100 plus shipping for the whole engine at a junk yard but shipping from Iowa was $100-150 (quote).

This isn't totally aimed at you John, but I have seen it several times. You are a newbie, so don't act like you know everything.
The 2 block numbers at the G4CS (hyundai) or the 4G64. There are 6 and 7 bolt versions of both, so make sure you get the right model years. It is a pretty direct swap (just as easy as a 2.3l) but the blocks are getting harder to find. Just watch the model year to make sure that you get a 6 bolt. [/b][/quote]
Sorry almighty king Jet. I am nowhere near 100% knowlegable like you. What I mean is that he should get a block out of a 89-91 galant (6 bolt) instead of a 2g 4g64 (7 bolt). I have found a few in junk yards but not around here that have them. If you are looking for one, search in the parking lot for the Iowa salvage yards. Jakey posted an ass load of them to help me out in finding a certain one. Give them a call. To most junk yards, they are worth nothing. I was finding longblocks for $100 pulled. Hell, who would actually be looking to replace the engine in their old ass Sonata anyhow? Most junk yards, if they have them, will practically give them to you. I am a total newbie like Jet claimed but you may want to steer away from the 7bolt 2.4ls. I don't even think Mike would like to send another to the machine shop.
