rebulid vs 3.8 v6

Yeah, they're a ridiculous price for what it is.

if u were gonna rebuild it y not add a few performance mods. maybe just a slightly larger cam to help it jump ect. if u were gonna blow the money on the rebuild y not make it better than the original for only a little extra

Some prices, for comparison.

# Spring and retainers $240
# Collets $30
# ACL Race Pistons $375.50
# ACL Race Main bearings $74.46
# ACL Race Conrod bearings $44.12
# ACL Cam bearings $46.53
# Rollmaster double row timing chain $136.20
# ARP Head stud kit is $182.52
# ARP Main Stud kit $105.52
# ARP Conrod bolts $161.70
# ACL Race full gasket set $380

You probably won't need to go studs if your not intending to chase power, good insurance, but up to you. Also don't forget you may need other stuff, engine mounts, harmonic balancer, coolant pipes, water pump, etc.
