before buying anything I would start taking this engine apart if you have this knowledge..then with the damaged revealed make your next move ...replace or repair..

if you have no experience in rebuiding engines best have someone install your replacemnt ...or have a shop make engine repairs if not too bad..but this could be very risky ..
