Good question. Well if your going to do the work yourself it would be a really good learning experience if you have not worked on your motor. One thing to remember is water is not compressible so.... there could be alot more damage than just a seized piston. Also depends on how deep your pockets are? I would say look around and find a donor you can pull a motor from might be cheaper and less time consuming.
