One of these days, Prodriver.
I have been drooling over that engine for a while.
From the little I know, it looks like you built this one to last.

It's a beautiful engine. So clean... just waiting to purr.

My luck it'll sell and, a week later, I'll need an engine.

I factor $18K, to include install and ancillary parts...

$18K/60 mos/5.75%/$346

Sell that existing engine for $3K...

$15K/60 mos/5.75%/$288

If you can get a better % rate, better still. I just pulled the 5.75% from... air. If you can get more for the existing engine... better still.

Someone could sell their existing and running engine for, what, some thousands of dollars. Take that quid... get a personal loan... pull some cash from the jar... would take the sting out of $15K all at once.

That's less than a car payment and, if your (my/his/hers?) car is in great shape, maintained and, appearance-wise, beautiful... I'd be considering it.

I think I'm trying to talk myself into this.

Tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock...

I haven't made a car payment since 1978 sure would not think about borrowing money for a repair. I'm going to buy another new 2500 hd next year have to write a ripper for about,70 k for that. Will be a little painful 😨. I make my car payment to a quality brokerage account and earn myself interest rather than pay the man
