Default Re: Please help me decide what to do. Au Engine.

I agree with Bushbasher - if this new motor checks out Ok with compression, install the new seals and put it in so at least you can have your car back on the road for work etc.

Depending on your future plans for the car, (and as you don't really explain what damage you have done to your original one) you now have the original motor that you can rebuild at a later stage and re-install.

I'm actually facing the same decision soon - my EF has 456,000 on it and I'm thinking either EF rebuild or AU / BA conversion.
