Lauren,

My 2 cents - Let Ken replace your engine with a Boston Bob rebuild.  I  do
not trust a factory to do a proper rebuild.  A factory worker who is
rebuilding your engine is just as likely to be thinking about taking his or
her boat to the river or when to take the kids for new shoes. Boston Bob
will be thinking about your engine.
