I was wondering what everyones opinion was on just doing HG's and main bearings. Instead of a complete overhaul.
I have a 89 engine with 150000miles and it runs great. But has a slight bearing noise around 2500rpm. Oil pressure is good. I rebuilt one, 2 years ago and bored it but there was hardly any cylinder wear but it was over the specs for roundness. It was around the same mileage. Im just looking to put a completely stock motor in no mods for a daily driver.
Would it be worth cutting corners or should i do a complete rebuild.
This all depends on what kind of lip is at the top of the cylinder..
One other question, how do u tell which crank it has? And which one is it u dont want? Thinking it was the cast one
