[QUOTE=Grady Clay;6324893]Nick,

Considering the history of the engine, your first ‘order’ should be to inventory the engine parts.
It is possible that you may have a collection of unrelated and worn/broken/defective parts, not a rebuildable engine.
The exercise will be a good learning experience.

As usual Grady is spot on.

I'm no expert at rebuilding engines, but attacking mine is on my list, and I'm not intimidated, mostly because of people on this board, like Grady, who are truly amazing when it comes to solving problems and offering advice.

So, I'd say you can do this.

But you first better be very familiar with what you have given the Motor Meister provenance of your engine/parts.

Before you make any decisions, take Grady's advice and figure out exactly what you have. Might be worth getting a local Pelican involved along with a 6-pack for an "inventory party"

Good luck!
