The plan was just to reseal the engine and rebuild the oil pump ( heh, the kit was $18 ).

I have tight budget for now on this and a deadline I am trying to meet. As you know a set of just main bearings is about $100.00. Where do I stop?



The cam & lifters look real good, no real valve stem wear on the rocker arms, cylinders look good no scoring no ridge other than a little carbon above the compression ring - it ran good but leaked.



I don't usually do this kind of thing - if I tear an engine down this far I just mill it, bore it - you get the idea.



This look OK to stick it back together with a fresh set of gaskets?



Thanks
