Just resealing the motor is not that expensive if you're doing it yourself. Just a lot of hours in front of a parts washer. You have a copy of Wayne's engine rebuild book? It's required reading. -Tony

Compression test I've done a ton of times, no big deal, but for the leakdown test, could I do that once the engine is on the stand? Yeah, I have the book and I've been reading a lot.
