Anyone with any experience with these motors? I was thinking of getting a rebuildable engine (read cheap here) and a rebuild kit. Priced one kit at $310.00 from Northorn Auto Parts. Have not hit the local parts houses yet or the stealership. Any sugestions on where to get a good reliable master kit? I priced a long block and it was $1200.00! So what I'm looking for is a sugestion. I want to bore it, and put my stage 3 cam in it. Are there any known issues with the 2.5L like the 4.0L. I read somewhere it does not like to be bored and has cooling issues when it is bored. I have not done anything yet but I know the compresion is low on 3 of my 4 cylanders and would like to get the ball rolling. Any words of advice would be greatlly appreciated. Also, I kinda want to do it myself bc of $$$ and the experience of rebuilding an engine. Something I have always wanted to do. Call me crazy but its something I want to try......
