Will only cost you around 800-1000 to rebuild and you'll have a mint as new engine

I'd love to see where your builder is getting his parts! Either that or he made practically nothing on the build.

A rebuild is the best way forward as all have said but ONLY if it is done properly. There are lots of lads out there who know how to fit a set of shells and rings but there is alot more to a proper rebuild then that.
