When I was single and living with my folks, I'd do stuff like that. But my days of changing motors for a few bucks are long gone!

Me and two other guys do it with Subarus all the time. They have that head gasket problem. 3 of use can pull that little 2.5 flat 4, change the head gaskets, then put it back in all in a Saturday. We make between $1,000 - $2,000 on each Sub. Not bad for a Saturday.
