Depends on the problem, if

Depends on the problem, if it is wear to the block and pistons, simply have it reconditioned, it may be cheaper in the longer term.

Reconditioning an engine means you know what work has been done, a rebore, new pistons and rings, and a crank regrind will give a virtually new engine. Many secondhand engines may have a number of inherent faults which may not become apparent until it is installed.
