Just a piece of advice from someone who's been there before, you're going to kick yourself later for not taking the opportunity now to do something with the engine. I mean, you already have to throw down some money anyway, you might as well make it worth your while.

To be candid that was the first thing I thought of until I priced what the parts cost. A wee bit on the expensive side.
