    Default Vr Rebuild, any ideas? (& VIN identification)

    Ok, i have as a couple of people may have seen im going to change my VP V^ to a VR V6, before i do this i want to rebuild the engine as dont know the status of it and want to put it in once only without removing it later.
    My questions are

    1st. A check on the engine number for Year / Model VH1413920

    2nd. I will be using this behind a VP V6 Auto with a manual VR wiring loom and ECU. What mods can i do to make the fuel economy better and if possible make the motor little more power as its going in a 4wd but economy is more important as i drive over 100k to work and back daily.

    I dont mind buying new pistons, camshaft etc. If its costs $200 for a cam but saves me $1000 over 6mths im happy to do that.

    Thanks in advance..

    The engine number you have was put into a car around Aug 1994.

    July 93 VH1326500 (approx start VR's)
    Aug 94 VH1413589
    Sep 94 VH1420000
    Mar 95 VH1471800 (approx finish VR's)
