Re honed
Block decked
New piston rings
New big end and little end bearings
Crank was ground, polished and balanced.
Oversized shims
Brand new oil pump
New head gasket and bolts
Full bottom end gasket set
Cylinder head skimmed
8 new valves

Full new cambelt and Aux kit
Brand new LUK clutch
Brand new genuine cable
Every nut, bolt and clip on the engine was zinc plated!

let’s hope it outlasts the car now 😅😅

Yeah that sounds good my 172 Cup is now on 100K miles
Why did you decide to rebuild the Engine and how much would that cost to do if you don’t mind me asking
