Hey Greg,
Disturbing news to learn of you misfortune with your engine.
The deed is done now, but I'm curious as why. What, if anything, was found to try explaining that engine had to be redone...again ? And, why couldn't all/any of these new parts shown be useful in any new build ??
I'm sure that you just didn't disassemble a new 600 mi engine just because !
What information did you receive that made you go this route ?
I think that a lot of guys are thinking same thing and your answers/reasons might be of value to us all.
