Engine rebuild in WA
 
Im boosting my 2000 soon. I have 106k on the motor and it runs great so far. But I would like to find a good shop with fair prices for rebuilding my motor. anyone know anyone around the seattle area?

I am either going with a kit from someone on here or FM. But I did stumble across this. Any thoughts?

dont rebuild unless you need to or you're thinking about swapping in better parts.

I just dont want something bad to happen unexpectedly after I turbo the motor...like toasting the whole thing lol.

do/get a leakdown test and tell us the results.

then dont toast it. or better yet, rebuild it now, and toast it later.....that's fun.

+1, this is all you really need to do. If you pass dont bother, if not, then c onsider rebuilding....because it needs a rebuild.

nothing should unexpectedly happen to the motor, and having it rebuilt first won't save you. It's all in the tune.

If you do rebuild, get ahold of Whitman engines. They are the premier WA engine builder. They are in Kirkland.
