Guys, I just bought a 646 that I found out today needs another engine. Water got in, and caused major pitting in both cylinders. I found one at this company:

No idea how legit that business is. Perhaps you can give them a call. How's the crankshaft and pistons and such?

Metal guy I’m not sure of your location. I purchased a ccka a few years ago for the tins. It originally powered a welder. I know it turns over so it’s not stuck. Other than that I don’t need this engine and you are welcome to take it for free.

But why? Are you rebuilding an engine Bob?
I looked again at the page. Fake sites don't have a phone and what seems like a real address listed. Most likely this is fine.
@Harry , that is very generous of you!

Harry, that is a generous offer! I am out here in Olympia, WA. I may wait it out a bit, and see how Bob gets on with his, though if that's OK.-----Metalguy

Not a problem it’s just sitting here with no plans to use it. The guy I bought it from said it was on a Hobart welder that his Dad had. I believe the governor balls are the same as a generator which run at 2500 rpm. So they would have to be changed to get the 3600 rpm for a GT. I’m flying to Portland Oregon to visit my son on Thursday. If I could put it in my pocket I would bring it with me. LOL.

Here is a pic of why I need a new engine. The pitting in the cylinder is deep!

Group,
It appears that this short block is an elaborate scam, I will post details this evening. Please, no one order one right now. Metalguy, call me at the number I left in my reply to your PM.
