    Bottom End Rebuild parts

    I am planning to rebuild my bottom when the weather warms up again. I have worn rings and the engine burns alot of oil. The head is not due for any work because its a clean head that I swapped on during the summer.
    And the rebuild is for experience and well to get a better engine in the process.

    Now I am looking into parts to rebuild the bottom end and this is what I got:

    Elring - Crankshaft Seal $3.83
    Stone - Crankshaft Seal $2.62
    ACL - Main Bearing Set $31.53
    NPR - Piston Set - Engine $85.71
    ACL - Rod Bearing Set $21.85
    Total 145.54
    All of the parts meet OE standards according to the site I plan on ordering from.
    Do I need anything else? and what do you guys think about the parts?

    What engine this for?

    Crankshaft seals cover both ends?

    What is NPR piston set? You mean rings?

    You call for price quotes regarding machining on the block?

    Do you know if simply honing is good enough to clean up the cylinder sleeves or is boring needed? Only way to know is by taking it apart and having a machinist check for you. If there is boring to be done (not honing) than you will need over-bored pistons and matching rings for it. Generally a machine shop will charge for cleaning, decking, boring/honing the sleeves for your needed work since your sticking with stock internals. My shop would quote you around $200 for the work you need, another $150 if you were to get different internals and needed to balance the rotating assembly.

        Autozone sells a gasket set, for about 120 bucks for our cars I believe. I'd do that and just change every gasket on the car.

            The engine is F22A6
            When I replaced the head the sleeves looked good. They were not scored or anything, but thats only by eye.

            The piston ring set was like 30 something dollars or around there and I saw that they had the piston ring set, which has the pistons and rings as the whole set.
            And the crankshaft seal is for front and rear.

              NPR $85.71 for 4 pistons and 4 sets of rings?? Sounds too cheap even for stock-replacement parts. Are you just honing and keeping 85mm pistons then? you reusing stock pistons?

              I've heard good things on ACL, never heard of other crankshaft seal manufacturer.

                The piston set

                I am going to keep stock 85mm bore. I am just going to just hone it out and no boring since the block looked ok.
                If the seals arent that good quality, I guess I will just stop in at honda and get those. How much do they run at the dealer?
