Hi All,

I've been watching Damon's thread with interest because I'm in a similar
situation.   I need to pull the top end apart to have cylinder #1 honed and
seated with new rings, and I'm considering one of three options:

1.  Just pulling what I HAVE to (believe I have to pull #2 to get to #1) and
having those sleeves honed and pistons reringed.
2.  Pulling all pistons/sleeves and:
    a.  Having a machine shop rehone all sleeves and seat new rings
    b. replacing them all with a new set - prehoned & seated (probably from
Bob)
3.  Attempting a complete rebuild.

Two questions:
1.  Is it a MUCH better idea to replace pistons/sleeves/rings than to go the
machine shop route, and how bad an idea is it to rehone/seat just one side?
2.  Recommendations on who might do a bottom-end rebuild if i wanted to shop
that out?
Damon, how's it going with Buslab sofar?   Contact info?

Thanks!!
Eli
