rebuild time....

ok so my engine is knocking like a son of a bitch and i'm sure its a bearing and was wondering now that i have to rebuild it and because i have no where to do it, i would have to have someone else do it. would you rather rebuild the inline 2.8 n/a 280zx engine or rather swap an rb20 sykline engine?? its a little more but would it be worth it??

just rebuild the L28... it'll be a LOT cheaper and be done a LOT faster.

stroke it, TT it, get a DOHC head, then mount a t56 to it, then put a 400 shot of spray on it and go run 6's all day long.....{/sarcasm}
