Message You need to determine what you want to replace.

Some things are absolutely necessary such as the gasket kit and freeze plugs.

You wont know what bearings you need until you disassemble the engine.

You wont know if you need to bore a cylinder and order oversized pistons until you can inspect the cylinders, although unless there is something seriously wrong with the engine, probably just ordering new rings and honing the cylinders is all you need to do.

Perhaps you may need new lifters or just want to put new ones in there to get it over with if the engine has high miles.

You can probably see why there isn't a 'kit' per se. Rebuilding an engine is a process, not something that you're gonna whip together like a microwave dinner.

: Does Courtesy make one? Does anyone make an engine rebuild kit for the 300ZX?
