Default Bugeye WRX engine rebuild.

I recently purchased a Bugeye WRX. The previous owner blew the head gaskets and left it sat in his yard for two years. I took the engine out and stripped it down to find the bores were badly pitted and a corroded so it’ll need to be re-bored.

can anyone recommend a good quality engine rebuild kit with over sized pistons?

thanks.

or run away if its a so called 'thick wall'.............
depends on your budget but if your looking at 'cheap' then a known s/hand engine would be the most cost effective
