RE: Wanting to Build an Engine....
In that case pull an engine, any engine from a junkyard that "runs" and get a chiltons or haynes manual for it and go to town. As long as you have a basic understanding, you can follow these manuals, they are usually idiot proof lol

Not even close. But thats seems pretty cheap. I would like a New one with good heads. Then assuming the new one works, drop in the Newer engine, pull the ol 97 out, and take it apart.
