I would say, see if you can find a complete engine (running of course) to just swap. That would make life a lot easier IMO. They can be found for $300-$700 on craigslist or check a junk yard.

Welcome to Explorer Forum! I would try to get the motor running first just to make sure that is bad/good. If it's bad, I would throw it out and get a new one. Try spinning the crank by hand to make sure that it isn't locked up.
