If you buy a Crate motor, You'll have your truck back on the road "SOON" with a dependable Motor, with a Guarantee.... then, tear this one down and start learning the internal construction on this one.. Rebuilding an engine is not rocket science, It just takes a little time,A good Machine shop, Some specific tools, ( that can be rented or borrowed) and a friend or neighbor that has some experience would be beneficial.

Of all the aspects of this hobby,,, There's nothing as satisfying as rebuilding your engine and Cranking her up for the first time.. To me, That's a great rush...
