[QUOTE="RaYzerman19, post: 1128077, member: 18388"] Let's say your current engine will go another 100K... are you happy with that? Pretty reliable I'd say, but since you have to pull it anyway, time to peek into the intakes to see if there's build-up on the intake valves, and other things you can look at while it's out on the floor. IF it were me, I'd be trying not to pull the cylinder head off as I just hate to disturb that unless forced to (just my mindset). The tranny parts you'll need to fix second gear are relatively cheap..... probably $300-400 including gaskets and misc. The worst of the job is all the labour time. Your choice of course, you have to weigh all the factors in your mind. [/QUOTE]
