the problem is with a nacked engine is that say the shells were knackered, it is more than likey that something else is worn, for example a corsa (1.6 :! ) come in to work, removed the head to find a valves melted on to the piston???, but rather than replaceing a piston and the head we put a new engine in, manley because you no once its rebuild there will be another problem you didn't spot. and if you haveing another engine put in, its abit much to take it back out again isn't it? | |

just make sure you don't get grit/dirt on any parts, and lay the bolts out how they come out, how far of a rebuild are you talking? if you say its time of a rebuild what do you mean? | |

its not hard, just take your time, and if you aint worked on one before torque every thing up (i have torque settings if you need) and remember where every thing goes :lol: dont want a load of bolts at the end of it | |
