why do you need the shop  to provide an engine plus the dealer no longer sells 2.1 engines 
I build a very nice engine at a resonable price

Hi,

I am rather dejected and need some moral support &
direction.  Number 3 rod turned into a snack for the
crank and was burped out the top of the case last
night on my way home.  With this lovely new "see
through" feature things don't seem to run so well
(minimizing, I'm in denial).

I have one shop close enough to tow to and they only
deal in VOA motors... I don't have the
time/tools/experience to do anything else but this
option.  Is all lost, am I going to lose all my sanity
and then some?

Any words of wisdom or consolation in my now WAY
overpriced Westy would be great.

Running with scissors,
Brian
