    I was going to guess that too lol, but since you're from Norcal I didn't say it thinking you might have gone out to Utah where it looked like Anza.

    Complete rebuild at 197k miles
    Sorry, i'm on travel for work. The actual rebuild took about 36 actual hours (took me 9 months given how often I travel for work). I had to pull the motor on the first crank when the oil pump broke. I pulled the motor in 1 hour and had it tore down about in 1 hour. you could realistically do the rebuild over a weekend if you started friday evening and didn't need a machine shop to deck or bore it over/polish the crank. I have another vehicle so it wasn't a rush for me to get it done.

    Cash wise, I basically rebuilt the motor twice (after the oil pump broke and sent metal everywhere in the block), so total cost was around $3000 (OEM parts) including the machine shop cost (deck, honing and crank polishing. I also replaced every sensor with OEM sensors which is why the cost was so high (plus new starter, oil pump (x2), power steering pump, etc.). I could have done the entire job for $1500 using non-OEM parts.
