Engine Building
I'm looking for some advice..
My engine died a few days ago.. not taken it apart tough.. yet..
just quit a bit of knocking and banging and the bottom end is gone , bad compression so it doesn't idle , the block has already been bored once so I wont be fixing this one
so here's the deal.. what would you do it's a MY00
and im thinking about ordering a new shortblock and some other things
but as Im not so much into engine building I'm not sure what my best option is
what kind of shortblock and what more to do..

IMO If your asking, then pay an engine builder to do this for you that way it gets done right.

Don't worry Kjartan, we can mail order you anything you need to repair your engine. we do that for customers all over Europe and Skandinavia. eevn the Caribbean.
We can also hold your hand while you repair it yourself if you wish.
Let me know what you need and we can quote you.
Good Luck no matter what David
