I'm curious for anyone who's done a rebuild or has done one themselves..around how much it will cost for a rebuild...nothing crazy or radical..more than likely the only thing none stock will be some .30 pistons...i doubt i need forged etc bc it's not gonna be a speed demon. are there any particualr things i should do during a rebuild...like something tney shoudl have done from teh factory? i'm shooting for good gas milage here...



and also.. what weght oil shoudl i be using?
