Engine Rebuild and Others - 3/12/2008 9:08:58 PM    Epyllion   Posts: 22 Joined: 2/8/2006 Status: offline Hi guys I finally retired my Stealth (DOHC R/T Non-Turbo) after 160,000 miles. I plan on pulling the engine this week-end (Got everything disconnected) and do an inspection. What are the determining factors for buying a rebuild engine, getting a new block or rebuild the current engine ? I have all the time in the world to get this done, and resources come with the paychecks :) My goal is to "rebuild" the entire front end and here are the two major issues I've found before even looking at the engine. The engine harness is dry-rotted and connectors are rusted (Couldn't find new one, but E-Bay seems to have them in good conditions) I can NOT disconnect the steering rod and the other two ends...not sure what to call them. The bearings are pressed. Do I need a press on the spot ? Found that every single bearing in the front-end has the plastic split in two...definately bad. I will use this thread to post my progress. If the admin doesn't mind :) Post #: 1

By all means, please use this thread to document your progress.  Pictures would be nice too. _____________________________ My Gallery (in reply to Epyllion) Post #: 2
