I am curious. Not that I need it yet but what is the ballpark cost for a 2.0 rebuild (done by a shop). I know there are many variables involved and options to consider but just a ballpark with a decent core to start with. I am thinking about 3k... What do you say? Thanks - (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I noticed on Rimco's page that they will regrind a stock cam and followers (lifters?). Is that ever advisable?
My other question is that is it ever advisable to reuse pistons? Do pistons wear out or can you get away with new cylinders and rings? QUOTE Balance pistons, rods, pressure plate, crank,flywheel,pistons,fan........$85 How does this work? Are they simply balancing every part? What about the dynamic balancing that Jake Raby always talks about? I assume with dynamic balancing that you have to have the engine partially assembled to do that right? |
