Default Re: 70k miles blown head gasket - needs new engine!

Yea, well, it's already been taken apart and he's confirmed that it's mostly shot. I've found an engine with around 40k miles for $1,025. And the mechanic said he'd install it for $600. Then plus whatever other parts would be needed, belts, hoses, oil, whatever else. So, I guess around $2k out the door. But I honestly don't know if that's worth it, even though that's a good price. :/
