It's time for my first full engine rebuild.
I've done many simple engine fixes-- new pistons + rings, stator soldering, clutch replacements.
However, this is the first time I am really going to pull everything apart and start from the ground.
I have a rally 180 engine that is siezed. I took the head off today and it looks like it'll be easy to get it unstuck (famous last words).
I also have a p200 engine sitting on the shelf.
So here's my question: What should I buy? Obviously, new pistons and rings. But what should I buy in terms of seals and bearings? Everything? What is your advice for an engine-familiar-first-time-full-rebuilder?
Adversely, should I just rebuild and use the P engine? (That's the plan down the road.) Should I just leave the Rally 180 engine on the shelf and focus my time & money on the P engine?
Help!
