[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 133379, member: 82"] We used aftermarket parts on most of our builds, for genuine it would cost more than a new engine. Some parts we have no choice but to go genuine though. We have not noticed our after market parts not lasting as long, the main failure we notice is lack of servicing, or worst yet, not re-tensioning the head gasket and it failing, making the engine over heat. Just use a kit off ebay, as long as the parts match yours, you should be good to go. I'm in Australia, so if you're over here i can help you out, if not just prowl ebay. I'd suggest you measure your bores or at the very least, check for a lip at the top of the cylinder. If it's out of spec, get +0.5mm over sized pistons and rings and get your block machined to suit the new pistons. [/QUOTE]
