[QUOTE="20SVT03, post: 9713515, member: 11763"] if you don't feel comfortable going into the motor then don't attempt it. the 4 valve motor has all kinds of parts inside. besides the short block there is nothing at all similar to a push rod motor except removing and reinstalling it. it sounds like you need to have the short block repaired at a machine shop because the cylinder wall is going to HAVE to be repaired. if you are at the point of it making noise there has been damage. its all really where you want to spend the money. for $5K you will also get a 3 year 100k mile warranty on a long block. if you buy a short block your gonna make up about $800-$1000 in labor and only have a 12/12 warranty plus still buy a short block. if you find a buddy that knows a buddy who just happens to work on cars then you can buy a beefied up long block or fix and beef up yours for $5k and pay him $800 to put it in.
