November 17th, 2008 08:45 PM #11These are needed for a complete overhaul. My dad told me that it's more advisable to do a complete overhaul (than a top overhaul) as the engine will receive more fresh parts thus, will generally last longer. On the contrary, a top overhaul will cost less but may give more headaches in the future.
As far as I know:
Resleeve-replaces the cylinder wall with a new one.
Rebore-resizes the cylinder wall to make a perfect fit for the new pistons.
Polish-polishes the cylinder head to improve or restore intake/exhaust performance

Thanks for your very informative posts bros. It really helps. Will be bringing the car tomorrow. Had canvassed for surplus engines at banawe, price is 20-25 din, japan local version daw. But I figured, the expenses will be more expensive if I swap the engine. Rewiring and installation plus having the engine reconditioned too will mean more pesoses out of my pocket.
So pag rebore, no need to resleeve? Does it need to be polished pa?
How about valve seat and retappet? When do I need this? And what are the specs for the clearances?

November 18th, 2008 10:19 PM #14Hmmm, I have no idea if all cars need a resleeve when overhauled. I just know that my dad used to do it in VW Old Beetles back when he was in college. But in modern cars, nada. But I do know that a rebore is needed in an overhaul. Polishing on the other hand, is done on the cylinder head. It ensures good flow of the fuel/air mix on the intake and gases on the exhaust. As for valve seat and retappet, I only know that it concerns the valvetrain. AFAIK, this is to recondition the valvetrain to compensate for wear and tear. Lolo told me that inspection of valve clearance is routine maintenance procedure.
