I just blew the engine (455) in the Gladwin Michigan area. Is there anyone close that can do a rebuild or engine swap?

989-429-0610

Thanks!
Rick

Your closest is probably Cinnabar.

When you say blown, do you mean cracked the head, the block, a rod, the crank or all of the above?

Just lost oil pressure and started clattering. The engine still rolls over but really slow,like the battery is nearly dead.
