Do it, man, do it.
I've been thinking about this newly acquired engine. My loose plan for it, at this point, involves waiting for a bit until the liquidity situation firms up, then unbolting everything that will come off and chroming it, painting the outside and doing rings & valves on the inside. Mike said it is a solid runner, showing only a little wear.
Another plan I had early on was - and remains - to find a Cummins 4BT to replace my own 216 when it becomes time, which, based on how beautifully she has been working, may be a while off.
If, therefore, someone on the board was in the meantime to manifest a desparate need for a 216, well.. let's have a talk. You know what I paid for it. I'd be willing to accept a modest profit, say, 10%. 10% of nothing is, uh, let's see... 4.. carry the 12.. oh screwit. Someone else do the arithmetic.
