      John,
      
      I got my new (used) block from Stratus when I tore mine down and needed a
      new block. New rings, bearings etc. were from a local shop.
      
      FYI, Hugh

      I've had an intermittant overheating problem and have broken down my Stratus
      EA-81 engine. This block had previous work done that left the #3 cylinder
      deck with a dip in it.  I was burning water in this cylider. It also had
      passed some metal of some sort thru the left side and dinged the #1 and #3
      pistons.  I need a new block as well as a total rebuild.  Crank, Rods, Cam
      and heads are OK.  My idea is to get a running car motor and rebuild using
      my heads and possibly crank and cam. 
          1.    Does anyone have a good source for parts?  ie master rebuild
          2.    How do you identify the year of the EA-81 engine? numbers etc. Are
      they all         the same as far as accessory locations, so I can use my
      Alt, redrive etc.        3.    If I opt to purchase a rebuilt engine any
      recommendations
          4.    I would also like to have new mounts manufactured as I am not
      happy with         the quality of this metal
      
      Thanks
      John
