QUOTE(injunmort @ Apr 5 2017, 08:32 PM)  you have the engine torn down that far and your going to reuse pushrod tube seals, crank seal and rear seal. renz gasket kit is about $.40.00, front and rearseal about $30.00. i would seriously rethink that plan, fwiw. you know the old saying, "never the time or money to do it right, always the time to do it twice. jest sayin' The upside of not replacing the old seals is the rear end of your 914 will never rust.

So far current advise suggests a bit of work and that's up there,any other short cuts will leave you most unhappy,problem is that's after the engine is fired again for the first time ......
