which engine to use???

[dirty devil]

I've found 2 engines. Both are 90 but one was a rebuilt, run for 6 months then pulled...sat for 2 years without being turned over. The other has 206K on it and was run last summer. Which is the better option???

I'd take whats behind door number 1. just turn it over by hand to make sure internals are alright.

I'd say take the one with the least usage. Number one. Both will require massaging to work for you anyway, so why not the newer one with less miles.

Swirt oil in each cylinder before turning it over. Also, I hear to initially rock it (turn the crank fron side to side) back and forth to free the rings.
