Can anyone give me a ROUGH est on reporting

I have Westerbeke 46 that looks like it has lost compression in all cylinders. Until we tear it down a bit we won't know the exact cause or whether it can be fixed or should be fixed. The W46 looks like it is out of production and replaced by the W50D. That would give me a few more ponies and I suspect fit in the old space with minimal modification.

Can anyone give me a ballpark estimate of the cost of re powering in this size range? I've just finished all sorts of repairs and upgrades and money is going to be really tight. I just want a feel for how many pencils I'm going to have sell on the street corner. Meanwhile I'll burn a few joss sticks that it just needs a valve job!

Thanks, I think,
Rich
