Message	so my little NA motor is dying slowly. it's been pretty down on power since i picked it up a few years ago and it's burning more and more oil.. so cost effectively wise, should i look for a low mileage NA block (which is near imposable to find), or just pull apart my current motor and put in new bearings, rings, seals ect... and call it a day? I love the simplicity of easy maintenance and reliability of the NA but i really don’t want it down for a long time while i get the TT conversion stuff pieced together. and i have my turbo 240 for boost... at least for a while. IDK, im bored at work. =\
