Or if you need the "engine" rebuilt you can take the engine to Folks machine shop in Norman.
I do not think they pull them though you must pull it.

Folks has done great work for me many times.
I hear carters is very good also, heard from the guy that grinds my camshafts.

We're rapidly approaching the point where the distinction is going to become relevant. The Prius and its kin already have both engines and motors for primary motive power; it's only a matter of time before we get a hybrid pickup (which would have its advantages, including serious low end torque of the sort that would make even diesel owners drool).

No not so much on clip magazine .. but motor is not even in the same ball park as an engine..But I blame not you but the engine rebuild places.. they started this crap years ago.
Horton Motors ring a bell..Joyco called it engines though.
How about Masterbuilt motors..
I suppose Motors has a nice ring to it and I can't blame anyone.
But I have seen many old cars even ones cars from the 50's with new Motor conversions.

Now when i say motor conversion it does not sound right .. just does not have a ring to it.. but I am in fact speaking electric.
Engine conversion sounds correct to my ears.

I worked on electric forklifts for a few years and for some reason they were never called engines.

I can see some shady car lots posting an old ride with rebuilt motor.. you drive off with a 90 day warranty on the motor.
60 days later the engine peters out.. NO warranty as that is not what was rebuilt.. read the fine print.. Rebuilt blower motor and windshield wiper motor. 90 day warranty.
I wonder how that would actually hold up in court.

I must edit because it does not sound correct to say Masterbuilt Motors.
What is correct is Masterbuilt Motors Masterbuilt Motors Masterbuilt Motors.

There I feel better now. You older guys will get that.
Time for bed :)

Looks like we have been brainwashed since before any of us were borne.
GM General Motors.

I did not even think about that until i read what MacFromOK posted Ford Motor Company and bigred1 motorcycle.
We are all doomed I suppose.
