Terrible news that you blew your motor. Are you planning on keeping the same motor or doing a swap?

Hollister just south of San Jose actually

No way to rebuild this engine really... I would have to replace both rotor Housings oh and I keep calling it an 86... that is what it was sold to me as, it is actually an 85 that the owner bought in 86.
