RE: Engine Rebuild Help
I see that your looking at the long block rebuild kit, I wouldent install the cams untill you get the turbo kit up and running though.
The labor needed for a full install is a compleat tear down of the motor, removal of the block, cyl. hone, head decked, block assyembly, and motor assyembly... I got quoted at 2500 not including the price of the kit, and that was from a friend.

basically, If I could make a suggestion... Get a 90 or 91 gsx/tsi awd/ rs turbo awd. The 6 bolt motor is nasty, the cars are cheap, and upgrades are cheap too. They may not look good but they got the go.

for the fact it has a 6bolt motor and is not prone to crankwalk which being so old you might have to rebuild the motor anyways so the 7bolt after rebuild is fine has as much chance of crankwalk as a 6bolt. so there are ups and downs to both age Vs crankwalk both may require a rebuild.
