205_sunderland 4 Posted July 17, 2006 (edited) well if anyone can remember i was saying a while back i was going to get an mi engine but my friend got it first and i said hell probs just not use it and ill get it later on well i have i was woundering if anyone could help me with a shoppng list of parts i would need to rebuild it. i think im just going to get the head skimmed and shimmed up again and leave it at that but as regards to bottom end i want to rebuild it fully can anyone tell me what parts exactly i will require like shels etc and ideas of how much it will cost all in p.s im expecting people to help me with all the ancilaries when it comes to putting it back together time:) regards michael forgot to mention engine is out of a 405 not 306 is that makes a difference?

petert 586 Posted July 17, 2006 The 2L 405 and S16 engine are all but identical. I recommend buying the special four extended main bolts and a windage tray from the S16. You also skim the block 1mm, not the head. The parts and costs are otherwise identical to rebuilding a 1.9L Mi16 engine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
205_sunderland 4 Posted July 18, 2006 i was only going to skim the head incase it has been overheated prior as i dont know engine history, and what are you refering too by windage tray? is there a benefit from extended main bolts. another question also is how much is it usually to rebuild a mi lump then?

Bono 0 Posted July 18, 2006 the four extended main bolts have a longer head with another thread in. The windage tray bolts on to these four bolt heads below the crank. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sam 4 Posted July 18, 2006 Bono do you have a spare windage tray and four bolts? IIRC you're rebuilding one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bono 0 Posted July 18, 2006 i don't have one spare at the moment i'm afraid. I might when i swap engines, although i was hoping to sell the block as a whole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
205_sunderland 4 Posted July 19, 2006 well ill look into it but what gain will i achieve from this? and still anyone got a rough price on how much for all bottom end parts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
