i have a 1200cc motor which had a top end rebuild 500miles ago.
took the engine out to replace with 1641 as doing a fair bit of highway driving.
engine sat in garage for 2 1/2 years and put back in to sell car, sadly only managed 30 miles before mainbearing seized on piston No3, had to give bigger engine with car so this one needs to go now.
ok deal is engine is $50 which is worth it for recon heads alone nevermind pistons and barrells. option 2: repair of bottom end is going to $350 which i dont have the money for!, pay for this to be done and ill re-assemble the motor and that'll be $100!.

Unfortunately the extra compression often takes its toll on the next weaker item which is usually the conrod bearings..
