figure i can rebuild the motor for about 6-8 hundo and have a good lil car
The bottom end should be fine, just take a quick peek at the pistons and if they have light marks from the valves they're fine to run again (unless the rings are shot of course). Check the head out make sure its not cracked, if not may as well send it away for port& polish. If your lucky you'll just be looking at valves and a head rebuild, in most cases its just valves that need to be replaced. keep me updated man!
