What exactly is wrong is the car that it has to be rebuilt? What are your goals for the project....be realistic? Do you want to do a complete rebuild or just fresh rings, bearings, and gaskets? Please gove us some more information and we will be happy to help you out.

Depending on what is wrong with your motor...Get your rods checked and reuse them, get the crank polished, block bored .020" at least, get the block decked and get all new rod/main bearings. Get ARP headstuds, mainstuds and rod bolts. Get rings to match however much you get the motor bored over and get a set of Ross or Wiseco 8.5 or 8.8:1 pistons and use a Mitsubishi MLS headgasket. Other than that you could leave the head stock for the time being until you are ready to move to that department.
