Topic: Rebuild Shopping List

[Sdsbassist]

So I am rebuilding the motor over the winter. My motor is a 78K model engine.

I want to start a shopping list now.

I will need:

A gasket set:

A honer?

Beer:



What else should I shop for? What are good things to do if I am likly going to split the case anyways. Does a "complete gasket set really come "complete?"

Thanks guys. I will be starting a thread for the frankenstein rebuild

I would not split the cases unless you have a good reason to do so.  I would do an upper end job.  Because you are already doing 90% of the work to replace the head gasket, I would pull the jug and hone it and install rings at the same time.  only adds about $60 to you rebuild and makes sure your engine is good and fresh when you put it back together.  Of course the added expanse is for the rings.

Even if I am seeping oil near the bottom seal?

ThreeBond 1104 to re-seal the cases.
