I received a response from a man selling his 200 engine. He said he would consider selling it in the $1700 range which is what it would cost me to rebuild one if I could find a good core plus the cost of the core. If you were me would you consider this a good engine to put in my 61 Econo for a cross country trip and should I have any concerns to look for. Gas mileage? Overheating Etc. I don't know how close to stock this was built. Any advice would be appreciated. Will try to post pics. Here is the message he sent me. (I have one rebuilt by danny willever in emmaus pa. $3000 rebuild. Compression 175 per cylinder comp 252 cam and stronger valve springs. Hardened valve seats new valves. Beautiful paint job. I asked him for 10-1 compression. New pistons, bored 30 or 40 not sure.1000 miles on rebuild.)
