whats involved with a light rebuild?

[Bambikiller240]

This discussion just goes to show that terms such as Light, Heavy, Minor, or Major rebuild can mean different things to different people throughout the world. It should (if nothing else) teach us that it is best to describe in full SPECIFIC detail what we expect a shop to do for us, or when asking a question of a mechanic or member of these forums to state EXACTLY what we are talking about and to avoid such vague terms as those described above.

or as Michael Jackson says..."Different Strokes for Different Kids, errr, Folks" :stupid:

They use the terms long motor and short motor (which has nothing to do with how long the motor is). I think short motor mean the block internals rebuilt, and long motor is the short motor, but with the head rebuild also.
