I've had this M117.983 sitting in my garage for a while, and I got to thinking..I bought this engine, for to get the tranny (dud) and was stuck with an engine, I've removed cams and alternator and now starter. The engine is a D-jet engine, but that's all trashed and seized. So I was thinking of rebuilding, slowly, the long block and heads to eventually become a M117.986 Replacement.

I got some questions.

If this engine happens to need to be bored, is it a sleeved engine? and are new pistons of oversized dimesions commonly available?
