Hey guys, since I posted afew weeks ago about my compression numbers it is clearly that my piston rings were fried. I got an estimate of how much its going to be to rebuild my motor (420a) since the rings are fried I figured why replace only the rings, its better to rebuild the whole motor, but the quote scared me (it was too expensive)
So I figured wouldn't it be cheaper to buy a longblock from ebay or anyother place (already reconditioned) and install it rather then having my current motor being rebuild? it would cost alot less (Sine I cannot do the work myself)

If I do get it, I wanted to ask you also what kind of internals will I need to run a turbo (im planning to run a turbo in future) like forged pistons, etc. and what brands to buy from.
