New member, serious help needed!!

Hi everyone, Been working on cars for quite a while now, first build was a 73 SS nova, during the $4.00/gallon gas prices, which led to building mannnny hondas. Hatchbacks, coupes, sedans, single cams, dual cams, N/A, Turbo etc etc.

Sold my boosted Civic coupe and got back in the V8 game with an 86 mustang, which had to go and sold off the 97 camry I've had since I was 15, and picked up an 86 short bed. So now the truck is my project/daily. Couldn't be happier!!..

Except for the fact that I blew a head gasket on my way to work this morning. I just moved to be closer to work so funds are a little tight as of late,

Which leads to my question, I figure I might as well just tear the motor apart and do a complete rebuild (Most of my gaskets leak anyways :p)

What's a good kit? Where to buy? Quick availability? Don't think I'll be replacing my pistons, probably just rings, gaskets etc. (still to be determined once I get it torn apart...)

Not trying to tear it apart, send it out to get bored and put a big ass cam or anything, just a basic rebuild.


Any info or links/ person experience with particular brands would be greatly appreciated!!
