hey guys,
I am looking at a 2g AWD talon on craigslist that has a spun rod. Otherwise, the tranny is good and has an n1 exhaust. I have been looking for a project car to work on even though I am not completely mechanically inclined. I think it would be a fun project. Hes asking 600. No rust and the body is in great shape. 140k miles on the car.
My question is this. Since the car has a spun rod, how much more (besides new rods) would I need to purchase to get the car up and running? If I take it apart what else would FOR SURE need to be replaced? Just gaskets? I know that it's hard to say without actually LOOKING to see what else might need replacement. Other question, is there a link to a website with a guide on rebuilding the 4g63t?
I have all the tools I would need, I just need a good guide. Or any good books?
Thanks guys.
