Preventative Rebuild
I'm going to pull the engine out of my 99 5-door Turbo for a preventative rebuild (slight rumbling when cold)...aside from mains, big ends, clutch - what would you recommend I do when it's out?

Now price that up against a new 2.5l bottom end .... with gaskets , and labour extra with yourexisting bits!

run the 2.5 shortblock on the standerd stuff to help spread the cost and upgrade later on when funds clear
as long as you can get insurance (must check)
recon 2.0 blocks cost more then new 2.5 ones
