  That IS a good idea.  Problem is finding a 5K TD engine.  I've 
seen about two in yards but you don't really know what kind of 
shape they're in.  I bought mine with under 70K on it and it 
needed rings. :-(  The guy was really good on maintenance too.
  I did a re-ring on it twice and decided I wouldn't do that again, 
not in-car.  Tight and difficult.  It needs rebuilt so next time 
it's coming out to work on!
