Hey there knucklehead11! I thought you were putting the Turdster out to pasture?

Adam, you can rebuild, with machine work for about $650.00, or get a reman. for $650.00. All depends on how much work you want to do yourself. And how long you can go with out a vehicle.
If you have the tools, go for the rebuild. If not, go for the reman. for now. You can usually get some type of warranty at the good companies. Ford Performance Catolog ($5.00) at your dealership.

Talk with you guys later....

Uh.. I want to, but can't afford to. Hey, it at least drives and all. I got it back from the shop today, running great. Only downside is that I gotta drive it sensibly now until I get new brake shoes (they're practically gone, lol).
