Removal and Re-installation.

Well, since you are in upstate NY it's only a short drive, well slightly
longer, OK, half a day long drive to my house in SE PA. I'm near the Bus
Depot. C'mon down. I'll get a case of Labatt's and a space heater for the
garage.

I'm a damn good cook too.

Sorry, what does R&R mean?. Installation?
You can't fully rebuilt an engine for 1500$ That is impossible.

Heat the garage, i'll go down and help you at a moderate fee, he he he.

For the first time in 6 years I have no big job after the one i'm doing now.
Strange, i'm use to be booked 2-4 months in advance.

So I may go work on the road for real this winter if nothing changes.
I'm gonna be an illegal Canadian Alien  working in the US for cash, he he.

I spent the last 5 days helping Hans (Vanaru)fixing his new shop in northern
NY.

I can get you a nice low mile 2.1L, put your AMC heads on it... he he he.

Damn recession.
