there are only 2 or 3 paths, that engine runs for 300k with no problems , if oil is changed. and not allowing overheats ever. (hoses new?)
hoses dont last 20 years, sorry
yes, you can in fact buy a short block or long block, ready to go. rebuilt.
or have any machine shop do it. (drop the block on the counter, and say, make it like new. ive done this many a time. (busy at work for years)
heads are sold exchange, rebuilt and are way cheaper than any machine shop here, ( $400 for 16v) I buy the heads from huge rebuilders in LA.
or DIY, but you need the book and all tools,. or its impossible.
Some places on earth have no real machine shops. or are no good.
Do you know guys that race? if yes, they will tell you in 1 second how they are. easy.
Ask local mechanics which machine shop is best for engines. some will answer truthfully others will do the staving babies deal, you are cheating me..... bla bla.
