Hey guys long time no post. Anyways some how I messed up on priming my motor after putting a new RMS in.

Well what do you know my oil has water in it SO i figured i let it sit to long and now it needs a new headgasket. So anyways i want to put a Rebuilt I6 and have peice of mind do you guys know of anyplaces that sell these motors for good prices i.e warrnty ect? I need a Long Block thanks guys any help would be great!!!

Well these motors are bulletproof so i would recommend finding someone parting out their jeep and get that motor, I let my 88 motor go for $100 to my friend.

Yea thats what Im thinking Im Jus lookin for a peice of mind though! I could go to the JY and pull one out for about 2 to 300 but what about he internals and then by the time you get done buildin it the way you want you have already spent that much and then some for extras! I dont know jus my 2 cents
