    last November my 2000 Dayton gtp got the milkshake oil. I replaced the intake gaskets, and on my test run, spun a bearing. It's been sitting in my garage ever since. I located a new motor with 160,000 for 600 dollars, and will buy it and have it put in but none of the mechanics in my hick town are willing to do it. I don't have the equiptment, facilities or expertise to do it myself. so there it sits. I'm driving a 32-year-old k-car winter junker and remembering the times behind the wheel of my silver bullet. lesson for you out there...enjoy your ride while you can...never know when you will be without it.

    ^^^ this. An engine hoist is all you need besides a basic set of sockets.
