Threenuts, if you decide to pull the engine I can tear it down with you one weekend if you want to take it for a ride to my garage in Bedminster. I try to have at least one free engine stand, only thing I ask is that you take everything with you when we're done. When the machine work is done, bring it back and I'll help you reassemble the short block. I have all the proper tools for disassembly and reassembly.
I like this option. Nice offer.
