Gee..... if we put a reman in our birds, we'll just price ourselves outta the secondary market.
That's funny. I still don't know because I'm waiting for the oil relief valve parts to arrive, but I might be facing overhaul time (or time to sell at a big loss). One of my mechanics recommended a factory new engine.

It was difficult not to laugh. For that kind of money, I could just buy another 150 and have a complete parts airframe in excellent condition along with top end and new engine accessories.
I hope this guy didn't get burned with "advice" like that.
