hey mate

mine only had 128k's on it before it shit a piston. ended up setting me back around 600 for new pistons, rings, mains, big ends, bearings, only thing i didn't change was the waterpump. Was working fine, DONT TOUCH IT :P

Anyway, whole rebuild only took the full weekend although with the low k's i only had to re seat the valves and gave it a light hone.

best of luck

if it sounds like too much work and effort, you can prob get a 2nd handy for half the price. swapping it over is a piece of piss but you just wanna make sure the engine your putting in is good enough.
