Default What are the reasons we cannot rebuild the BB V-6
Hi All,
just a general question.(the Title) I was under the assumption that over-sized rings and perhaps the pistons were the reason these engines do not get rebuilt. Now i understand rebuilding any engine costs money and sure one could have custom pistons built but for me that is not an option. The main reason I ask this question is that i recently noticed NAPA is offering ring sets varying from stock, to 3 different sizes of oversize ring sets.
Thanks
