My valve steam seals appear to be leting oil through them now.

Im gonna pop the engine out and replace the valve steam seals and reseat the valves.

Is there a kit i can buy?

Im thinking while the engine is out, i may aswell reshell the crank and fit new rings aswell.

How much will the
Head gasket & Bolt kits cost
Valve steam seals
Shells
Rings

Prices would be good

Are there any recomendations for other parts to be replaced while its appart

Excluding cambelt and clutch as these are new.

Thanks.

I don't know if this is relevant, but when I did the stem seals on my old 944S, I made the mistake of not replaceing the valve guides at the same time... Because the guides were shot, the new seals only lasted about 5 minutes.
I don't know if the same applies to the EJ20, but it may be worth investigating?

@ Redscoob, yes it would make sense to also change the valve guides while its all appart.
