So a few weeks ago I posted about my motor going kaput (or close to it, it still runs but oil sample had lots of metal in it). After the discussion on my thread about a new engine I've zeroed in on just doing a 2056. Now I could either build it myself, which means lots of downtime, or have someone else build it. It looks like Fat has a 2056 long block available for ~$7500. Kind of seems like it's in the ballpark for a rebuild. But before I would pull the trigger on something like that does anyone have any experience with Fat lately? I've read both good and bad since they've been purchased by Rimco.
