    m20's are super cheap, just buy another motor and reseal it.

                    need more information! what is wrong with the engine? what kind of rebuild? head? block? everything?

                    do you want to stroke it? 2.7/2.8/2.9/3.0/3.1/3.2?

                    lots of variables :D

                        rebuilding the engine gives you a better understanding for the m20 and gives you way more exprience than just forking out cash for a new one...

                        Time and money is everything.
