Darell, 
    I will forword this to our members of the Bay State Corvair club. Some one may have a 110 engine also.
It would cost you about $2500 to build the engine.

Hello Lionel:
   Thank you for responding to my issues.  It would be appreciated, if you would still
bring this issue up at your next CORSA meeting (about the polishing/cleaning of
the tail light lens).
   What you charge in rebuilding a #110 engine?  Another big problem would be
the extra costs for shipping the engine to me?
Thanks,
Darrell
