So my 95 KA has roughly 158,000 on her and I am hard up between getting an SR but I really like the KA and I would love to stay N/A. I was thinking of just getting a rebuild kit for the engine but I also would like to go with some 10.1 compression pistons and port/polish the head. I will probably try and score another used motor and rebuild that one so I can still drive the 40 around. In doing this I would replace everything, water pump, oil pump, tiiming chain, everything....pretty much rebuilding the motor from scratch. I don't ever plan on selling this car so I guess I am considering the long haul on this. Any comments or ideas would be appreciated. Such as things I would need such as better rod bearings, bigger injectors for 10.1 pistons ect ect. Thanks guys.

yeah, do everything, but dont worry about injectors, 10.1 isnt even a bump thats really worth doing....
