Engine rebuild help
Calling all pros! cough*BigVinnie*cough lol
Ok so the ka24de knocked bad and here is what i got..
Notice the small hole (this is cylinder #4)
Also what are these goldish colored things?? Sorry for my ignorance but i have no idea what they are...
Notice the small chips on both of them..
Ok so as of now im getting a new block from a friend, what would be the best thing to do (this motor will not be boosted or anything like that so i dont know a bulletproof mootor, i just need oem goodrunning..
I was thinking getting new piston rings, main bearings, and rod bearings...Anything else i should do, do the walls need to be honed out? If so what is an approximate cost for this?
Or would i just be better off buying a running ka ?
Sorry for all the questions but i just wana make sure im doing the right thing

youre not planning on using a block with a hole in it are you? if youre gonna rebuild, buy a hone, or have it honed at least. Honing is crucial to ring seating from what i hear. Im having mad problems getting my motor mounts loose... grr.
