dont do it unless you have to... Posted by Saabu [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Rebuilding an 8V motor, PhilV, Sat, 5 Aug 2006 20:48:16 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
it will cost you at least a grand in machining and parts to do it right.
generally the bottom ends of these cars are bullet proof, unless the rings are shot or the engine was abused or overheated. just update the head and clean up the block for simplicity.
its $300 US alone for chrome rings and vandervell bearings (Swedish Dynamics has a kit) which you must use (dont use cast iron rings - only for non - turbo cars).

ps i've got a machined 8v turbo block if you are interested... plus a polished crankshaft. Calgary may not be close to you...
