Thanks Partsguy5. I would appreciate the GM breakdown if you can locate it.
I don't know yet whether we will need to turn in our old engine to Helmar or even if their is a core charge involved. I tend to leave the fiscal details up to my bosses as they don't really want input from the peons anyhow (no matter how much they say they want your ideas, they would really rather you just kept quiet).
I have never been much of a quiet person, and my thoughts are that we need to retain the old engine unless it must be turned in as part of the deal with Helmar. If we could source new pistons for 1/2 the Tennant price (or less) I think the engine could be used as a spare or a replacement for another sweeper elsewhere within this company if one is needed.
