    Unless you know the rebuilder, a $6300 engine will not be much of an engine. I don't trust any of the big name rebuilders out there. I know Greg from Lube Specialist had 2 or 3 from the one that's about the biggest name in the engine biz that were junk before he went to a smaller more personalized and specialized shop, and even that one he had a few minor issues to work through.

    HG job on yours and should be good to go another round
