Bottom end tear down

What parts *have* to be replaced if the bottom end is taken apart to be cleaned? Do I need any special tools to remove the rotating assembly or to put it back in?

Suposed to replace head/main/rod bolts. All gaskets, like the oil pickup tube gasket, oil pump gasket. Also all the bearings. The only special tool I needed was a snap ring pliers to remove the wrist pins. And obviously you'll need the ring compressor to reinstall the pistons.

BUSHINGS, BEARINGS, AND SEALS ARE A MUST.

Doesn't look like I'll be doing that anytime soon. Lol. She'll stay dirty. I was wanting to acid bath it, but I don't want to go through all that hassle.

Sometimes I wish that I had a Chevy or Ford.

I know, but it's a lot cheaper to do and parts are easier to find.
