C'mon Denis, you're smarter than that. Maybe 1 in 10 guys on this BBS would undertake an engine rebuild as a DIY. For everyone else a top end is close to $10k and a full rebuild closer to $20k with P&Cs. Comparing apples to apples, a good DIY mechanic could rebuild a good M96 core for the same or less. Or just swap in a good used engine for $10k or so.

I agree that the air cooled motors are rarely totally trashed. But don't pretend that it's cheap to rebuild one for the average person.
