There is a RV for sale in which the owner put a salvaged engine. The owner who is not an A&P replaced several of the parts in the top of the engine. There are no records for the engine prior to this owner.
He has put close to 400 hours on it in 11 years.
I have asked a few people about this and some are well respected and I have gotten basically two different answers:
1. Run away.
2. Have it inspected it could be OK.
I wanted to open my aperture a little to get a few more opinions.
Would you consider a RV with a salvaged engine?
What type of inspection needs to be done on it? How much will that cost?
Anyone overhauled an 0-360 lately, if so what is that cost?
Thank you
