Hi All,

Thanks for all your responses!

RobST162, I am interested, I will send you a PM soon Smile Great start!

What would I be looking at for tools? Like I don't want to buy a cheap set that is going to be letting me down every 5 minutes. But at the same time, I don't want to spend a fortune! What tools do I need to complete this task?

Everyone on this forum seems to think that the pre-engine rebuild rebuild is a good thing Smile However, there is one person on another forum (who I have a great deal of respect for) that says I may gain a false sense of confidence rebuilding an engine that I cannot see working. He says that there is no way of checking that everything was put back together properly, and this may give me a false sense of confidence for when I do the real thing. I may do the same thing wrong things with my proper engine and mess the whole thing up! He sees it as a waste of time and money and told me to jump in head first with the real thing.

Comments?

Rob_RA40 - I have already been to one toymods meet, although I was late too it and didn't take much of an active role Smile I was just an observer at the time. I love cruising too, and plan on attending every toymods cruise starting now Very Happy

inertia - how much would a 'Kincrome 39pce' set cost me?

Anyway, thanks for all your comments and suggestions Smile
