"MY 1982 3hm35 head gasket ble
"MY 1982 3hm35 head gasket blew this past spring. the head was warped and so i had it machined and replaced all the injectors etc while apart. at that time the ecylinder walls appeared ok and so stopped there on the repair.
this fall the rings went.
a new engine will cost $7200 but yanmar recommends a new v drive transmission as well for another 4-5 grand.
estimates on the repair run from 2500 to $6000
So the questions are: it going with the new engine is it necessary to replace the transmission also?
if the entire engine will be rebuilt what are some of the advantage to new?
Thanks,
frank"
