Or at Least I think. It makes a hard knocking sound when it starts idk if a block replacement would be the 1st step to recovery. As Java told me it's very pricey to rebuild boxer engines...Need help please lmk

parts for internals on our boxers are not that much more, bearings, and such...so if you rebuild it urself it wont be any more expensive than a conventional engine. Labor to do them at a machine shop is usually where it gets pricey. if you cant do it your self then i would go with a short block ready to go like what imslow is selling here.
