what do you mean by rebuild the bottom end exactly?? i mean if youre planning on including a bore/hone, its unlikely that you'd be able to reuse the pistons as you'd obviously need the next size up. then theres the problem of if its been bored already during its last build (when the forgies went in), as to whether or not the cyl can take another bore (MAX is 85.5mm, and acl only do a 40thou over (84mm) piston anyway).
all depends on the bore cond i guess, but if its in the slightest bit dodgy, id bore em. hell if the engines out, why not.
then you'd be looking at a possible crank grind, full balance, bearings, rod re-bush, oil pump (perhaps), seals, welch (sic) plugs, rings, block deck. then head: valve seats, grind, seals, face. and thers the possibility that your cam journals/bearings are dead which means at least a new cam, perhaps a new head.
if it all goes to hell and you end up not going for the rebuild, depending on size/condition of pistons, i know someone how would be very interested in buying them
