which Overhaul Kit do i need

i never had to do a rebuild but i am going to soon the reason why is cause im gonna do a massive streetport. but anyways is this the master overhaul kit http://rotaryaviation.com/images/Eng.../Masterkit.jpg because im not too sure. to me it looks like it is because there is a lot of stuff there. but since my engine isnt blown or anything would it be ok to go with the basic kit or master. also if i get the master that comes with all seals and o-rings right?

just depends on the budget and how much you want to go into replacing.

I rip the motor apart myself first, then see what kits/parts I need

thats a full rebuild kit that you posted there, not all that stuff is neccessary to rebuild your engine. Generally if you have the money, that kit is the way to go.

If you're still building good compression and just want to port, you'll just need to replace all the soft seals....

much cheaper that way

well im also getting an safc but i dont think that really matters much on the seals but anyways is the o-ring kit is all i really need? cause i was thinkin about getting new apex seals too... cause later on down the road i am gonne be running a low shot of nitrous not much over a 50 shot may be more around a 45 shot. when i do this will i have to worry about side and corner seals or ya think ill be ok on that


thanks for you input
