Default Buying first engine for trainer

Hey troops: I see in Tower ad(RCM )new OS 40FX ,104.99. A OS 40LA natural ,54.99. WOW, how much fuel & how much flying will $50.00 get a beginner. As far as spraying out, if its that bad send it back! Besides looked up bearings in LHS Great Planes catalog, bb re 40-50 22.99,bb fr 40-50 16.99 ,most shops don`t discount parts. Crank-case 40LA blue 31.99 ,FP 40,29.99. Looks like the old bushing chug is about $10.00 cheaper for whole crank-case ! If you think you are going to wear out your crank-case , better order one now , because when you wear out the case, 10 or 20 years from now you may not be able to get parts that old!!
