which engine parts/gaskets needed for rebuild?

[Robclio98]

Basically I am transferring all the parts off the 225 block into a 182 F4r Block so i can fit the Jc5 box onto it. Now i know i need new gasket sets, headbolts, shells? Cambelt kit, timing/locking tools aswell.

Question is which gasket set do i buy, the 225 or the 182 set? same for the headbolts and cambelt kit. Also wheres the best place to get them from as ive been quoted £91 for the gasket set

What else will i need to rebuild the engine, could i just pop the crank into the block and just reuse the shells?

I ask as i have not done anything like this before.

Cheers guys

Ideally you need at least the Megane head gasket as it's thicker than the 1x2, personally i'd use a cometic 70 thou (meg is 50 and clio 30).
