not really, you need allot more stuff to do a bottom end build. head off ect. so gaskets/ bolts and what not all add up! new engine and throw a timing kit on. job done

Rentech got an engine on 40k would it be ok to stick a new cam and aux belt and leave the dephaser or get it all done ? What else should I do as the engine is off

Tbh dephaser a can be fine at 40, or fucked. Theyre impossible to predict.

So would be a good idea to get it done ?

tbh, if you got that engine and got dan to fit it, ask him what he thinks should be done. doubtful dan would rip you off saying this, this and that.

but it makes sence if the engine going in , is currently out, whack a timing kit + dephaser and such on, then you have god knows how long of trouble free motoring for years.

its up to you mate, you'll get mixed opinions from everyone.

dan knows more than me about F4R's. so your bet is safer in his hands rather than mine

Yeah think going down that route would be best. As engine out going to get all belts done and new clutch. Going to cost more but would be better in the long run.

true, cost me about 500 to get my bottom end redone after it failed. dci engines aint cheap tho, BUt 500 gets a bare bones f4r on here usually( without timing redone )

Where about's did you get the bottom end redone ?
