BEWARE 75 SHOT!!!
#33
clutch and the differential wont like the 100 shot
i dont think the pistons will either
your right sickg60,... but the thing is,... its gonna cost quite a bit just to open the sucker up
lets say they open it
and something is wrong,... then they fix
new piston plus the bore
700bucks minimum???
i already found a couple of engine under 700
remember, my engine does have 70K miles on it
so maybe getting a newer engine will give it some more juice.
how hard is it to pull the head and check myself???
i rather do it myself than to pay someone 200 to do it

With BETAs it is almost always cheaper to buy a used engine than it is to rebuild one. The general concensus of the juckyards is that no one wants to buy a Hyundai motor. I have found localy that I can buy an entire engine (from the TB down) for 500 bucks. Since most of us don't have the time tools or knowledge to rebuild our own engines we must pay others to do that. The average rebuild cost is about 1000 with labor taxes and installation. Most of us know that rebuilds can be a hit or miss thing even when done by a pro. Now I am not talking about replacing all the enternals with better forged pieces just a rebuild. He is better off getting a used engine.
