That is very kind. Just the sort of gesture that makes the $ pain of this sad situation better.
The P.O. is a decent guy & I belive him when he says he had no clue of the impending doom. Just time to man-up. But without the help of this Forum it would be overwhelming.
My engine will drop today or tomorrow -hopefully with a tall jack beneath it !
The real challenge is the engine rebuild. I have found a special ,rebuild tool kit that others have used on EBay for around $360. That helps!
My last practical experience of this kind of engine work was on headless(monoblock=block+head cast as a single unit so no headgasket!) turbo diesel engines. That was a while ago and we made the engines so had all the tools and skills -both are now lacking for the current project!
