Any opinions on what is fair to me and the seller concerning
allowances for the engine O/H?

Whats the oil consumption and compression readings, does the
engine/plane still perform like the manual says, whats the history of
the engine, ie. has it been topped? Making TBO and beyond may mean a
well cared for engine that can continue to operate for many years to
come without an OH...

Also, take the $5k and put it into a OH account, save away additional
funds for each hour flown... You just might make it though training with
doing nothing but oil changes and keeping the tanks filled. Sell the
plane and move on when done...
