Subject:update#2:was:engine quit, oil spray,smoke etc...now dead engine/replacement time

Just got the bad news call, engine threw a rod, there's a hole in the
engine.....sigh.  Thanks to all those who repied to the original  questions.

So now it's time to look into a replacement.  I'll search the archives  for
who makes the best one and listen to your comments.  Anyone who wants  to chime
in please do.  i'm thinking to go with the waterboxer instead of a  subie or
other.

your thoughts friends?...it's research time again.
Thanks in advance!
