Hey Folks,
        Last June I purchased a rebuilt engine from AVP, after 3000 miles a
head gasket blew 800 miles from home. I had it repaired locally with AVP's
"guidence". It took forever to resolve the issue with AVP. Yesterday I was
told that I have another blown head gasket. The leak is internal. The
engine is 1000 miles out of AVP's warrentee. After my previous experience,
I can't imagine how this will get resolved.

I have been told that the best way to proceed is to take them to Small
claims court. I know this will be a very difficult thing to do since I am
in N.J. and they are in Calif.

 Does anyone have any advice? Or been in a similar position?

Thanks
Dave
