what he said. it's not about 8k it's about doing it right. If you're gonna rebuild an engine do a proper rebuild. Take her apart clean her check the build for the proper specs and put it all back together in better then new condition. The crank needs to be removed and balanced for a proper rebuild with new rods and pistons, anything short of that really is half-assed.
