You should get a shop manual for your truck. With the guidance of the book and this board you should be able to re-ring and hone it yourself and save your money for other parts.(Plus the satisfaction you'll get doing it yourself) If you take it apart and the cylinders are scored make a boat anchor out of it and look for a 235 or a 261 which will drop in with minor modifications. Rings might just be stuck in the piston grooves on your dead cylinder. What if there's a sweet running motor in your neighborhood for a couple hundred bucks that you overlooked? No sense on blowing $1000 + to rebuild yours in that case. Just my opinion...
