Ron, that's the first time I've heard that. Where did you get that number? For 1350's?

There is another thread about this going on right now strangely enough.
But the people that I know of that have had to write the checks say its alot more than $32K, in fact closer to double. But they did like the new 1 year warranty

The few I have heard, and actually hold to be credible, have been close to 80k an engine. I think it's funny they will give you a $3000 to $9000 core credit if your block is worth reusing..

That being said, if I know you Ron, you will be the one to figure out how to get-er done for the $32k!

Can't wait for the trip to Florida! I might be driving to sterling this week, up for lunch?

He will not keep the boat long enough to have the engines rebuilt.
