So in other words, you might as well rebuild the engine with new rings,
bearings etc

Kaleb,
I believe we can only get the updated rods and AFAIK, they're still
available. Current cost is about $160/ea wholesale. You need to pull
the oil pan AND head, as the piston can only be removed from the top
of the engine. Definitely a big job. I'd want to pull the motor, and
while it's apart, do all the chain rails too.

Are the improved updated rods even available anymore? I suppose you
would have to pull the engine, then the pan and crank to change out the
rods. That would be easier than having to pull the head.
