You're welcome,Riz,and thanks to all of you guys for your comments.................I'm happy and honored to be able to help this soldier out if I can.Even though it's been 45 years,I still remember what it's like to return from a year in hell and not have a lot of money to get my life going in a normal direction again.

Do you still have the 292 engine?  If so what craped out?  Maybe its not as bad as you think and it can be repaired.  Let us know.
