[QUOTE="ehoe, post: 8334, member: 141"] Just wanted to get some opinions, is it worth while to do a complete overhaul on an old engine or just drop in a 2nd hand engine. Seems like there are plenty of 2nd hand engines out there now and the cost to do a complete overhaul can infact cost as much as a 2nd hand engine. So was just wondering the opinions of fellow forummers on this topic. I guess if u r happy with your current engine then perhaps a complete overhaul is the way to go but if you have a underpowered sloth (eg M20B20, M50B20,etc) then perhaps upgrading to a M20B25 or M50B25 would be the better option. Anyway just wanted to get some opinions....... [/QUOTE]
