Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and wanted to ask, just how hard it is to split the case of my 2.0. I currently have the heads, pistons, valves and P/C's at the machine shop. I've gone this far and am wondering if I should split it.
I know alot, if not everyone will say to split the case, but can anyone let me know how hard this is and what to look for and replace. I am changing the rings, have had a valve job and have had the valve guides replaced. Thanks to all. |

Very easy. You've gone this far...split the case. It would be more worth your while to put in a fresh cam, cam gear, bearings and have everything balanced. Clean everything, seal everything, and hopefully you won't have to go through this exercise for another 100k (if it's done well). If you don't, you'll be most likely be splitting the case much sooner.
Just my .02 to help make your project take 2x longer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif) Oh yeah, welcome to the board! |
