if ur clueless about it i wouldnt do it unless u have alot of free time.
thats the main and rod bearings and thrust washers all of them. u will wanna measure ur crank before u order them tho.

i got vitara pistons not standard but,

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170577222550&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

bridge end garage in wadebridge are building mine and he sed he could have got standard pistons(+.5mm) for ~£220 +vat.

£20 per cylinder to be bored.

U could try emailing that 'mizumoauto' on ebay and see if theyd get u a price or if they can get them.

he did quote me £7-800 to start with with him getting bits for standard rebuild which price at £300 sumhow(only rings bearings and gaskets).
iv brought all the parts myself, saved alot and spent it on more parts lol. its a completely different build now so ill just wait for the bill to see, as its been bored out now and is having the flywheel lightened. iv been told he is the man thats y i went there as its along way from me. and a mate had a huge bill and a blown engine after he went to sum1 localy in falmouth.
i aint goin turbo for a while probably the summer when i dont have to go plymouth every week, save some fuel.
yh i went to the other cruise but not this 1, didnt fancy rocking up in my white 1.8 diesel ford escort van tbh Laughing, but i herd they was no go-karts and burnouts but was packed.
go on street-stylers.co.uk (southwest website) thats where it was organised.

u goin modified mania in smeathorpe??

im going hopefully with street stylers, unless enough people from here wanna go?, uk-ssgti stand..?, and i think they won pretty much all awards last year.

if you give up or what ever can u gimme a shout as id probably take it off your hands, but i hope it doesnt go tits up. If u want it built im sure andy at wadebridge wouldnt mind giving a price and it would b less than mine lol, but if u do build if yourself defo get the manual and remember people are here to help, well most of them are ......
