Once you decide what parts you need, use diagrams from partshark, partzilla, or bikebandit etc, then perhaps the forum can be of some assistance.
Mr Carl Leo would be the best source for quality parts, but eBay motors has an abundance of used parts, (quality unknown), as well.
How bad did it overheat and why did it overheat? Are you sure it needs repairs?

I would be less costly to purchase another engine. Shop around and compare to the estimate from your mechanic.

Also post a request for an engine here on the AVA. A few of us here have some spares. You may find you don't have to ship or drive very far to pick it up either.... Your a ways away from me here in NJ.
