standard rebuild or buy second hand??


Recommended Posts

Hi guys could do with some input..

I have a 96 auto 4efte in need if a rebuild. oil pump went on it and been sat for a year.

now ive never done an engine rebuild, would love to learn but how much are we looking to do a full standard rebuild. i cant afford forged atm so no point considering really.

also if i could get hold of 5efhe pistons id love to do a 5e build.. but again anyone know of costs, like gaskets, pumps etc.

tried a search but didnt give me much.

then the other option is do i just buy a secondhand 4efte, but problem is ensuring condition, where to get and also cost..

help lol

also if anyone has a list of parts needed for a standard rebuild that would be soo useful :lol:

cheers

Anyone? would appreciate any input.

bear in mind im gonna be running a td05 at a bar maybe 1.2 but will start at a bar. will be doing all work myself as is a second/project car but to also reduce on cost labour costs are criminal these days.

any help would be great

if i had the option id always rebuild my own then u no what exactly has been done and that its been done well. however if your running at td05 id prob save till u can forge td05 seems like a bit of a waste on even 1.2bar id wait save money forge it urself then get the boost right up :lol:
