I have at least one broken piston skirt. I haven't checked any of the rod or crank bearings yet.
My plan is to replace any damaged pistons, re-ring all of the pistons that don't get replaced, new bearings on all the rods and crank mains, and replace the lifters. Also going to do the rear main seal. If I can get away with it, I would like to do all of this without pulling the engine.
Is there anything else I should look at while I've got everything apart? Anything on the transmission to look at?
I just did a head gasket and went through the head a few months ago, so I know thats good.
If any of the lifters are badly worn, will it hurt the cam to put a new on in? How about the push rods?
Are there any specific brands as far as pistons, rings, and bearings, to stay away from?
