Rick,
Just curious - what about the engine is "blown?" I keep hearing that term, but
I don't know what it means. Sometimes a repair can be made without doing a
complete rebuild or engine removal. And I would think that once the engine is
out, pretty much any local shop could get it going again.

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

Thanks!

Gary,

I reckon you could be right, we need some pictures to make sure it doesn't look like this.
