I am going with a rebuilt powerhead. I don't want to put anymore money into a powerhead that is 13 years old and has never been rebuilt and needs the block welded. I will cut back on some of the labor cost with trouble shooting. Right now my estimate to paint the engine and replace the powerhead with a rebuilt one is about 2k. I guess I have to spend my money on something.
