85445, 420A rebuild questions Posted by youkickedmydog, Jan-31-05 01:55 PM
In the spring I plan to boost the motor but it has about 107k on it so I decided to rebuild it before I warp and piston or throw a rod but I am not to sure what to get or what I need. I know a guy who can do it for cheap but he siad that I needed to get all of the parts togather first. For pistons I want to get wiseco becuase my friend is sponsered by wiseco for motox and can get the crap for list but what else should I replace besides rods, rings and bearnings, and what barands should I go with?

Some people here have had bad luck with wisecos. Steer clear.
Nice handle, btw.

Originally posted by youkickedmydog I am not to sure what to get or what I need Check places like Exile Racing Technologies or Howell Automotive. Typical rebuilds include the following:
pistons, rods, bearings, oil and water pumps, belts, gaskets, and plugs.

You said it. I'll never buy another set of Wiseco pistons as long as I live. They are not made with the quality of other pistons. Do some reading on here. List price means dick if you have to buy more than one set.
Originally posted by youkickedmydog besides rods, rings and bearnings, and what barands should I go with? I would suggest Hooked on Phonics.
