    I have heard that several people are waiting for their motors to get back from the shop. And if any of them are the F-134 I was wondering what it costs to rebuilted the engine. The motor I am putting in the 1955 had the cylinders and crank bearings done and the valves were only seated not replace, and it runs beautifully. My 1963 needs the valves adjusted for sure. I was wondering what it would cost to have the F-134 rebilt when the time comes I can get all the parts at a reasonable cost, but it is the labor I am most concerned about
    even an estimate would help when choosing a machine shop
