Aloha All,
Well I searched the archives hoping not to share my ignorance but couldn't
find the answer.
A couple of weeks ago, I shared my compression tests with you all and have
since discovered that I need a valve job. I am thinking about having the
whole engine rebuilt and would appreciate you thoughts on that. The car has
about 82k miles on it.
What I am curious about, is if I go ahead and do the whole engine, what is a
balanced and blueprinted engine? I've heard the terms many times but don't
really understand what they mean or if this is just part of having an engine
rebuilt?
I am interested in increasing the power but the car will only be used as a
driver. I don't have any desire to build a race car. Suggestions on changes
to the engine that I might make while I'm at it would be appreciated also.
Thanks,
Mark
