It is like asking a stereo shop to install an 8 track tape player in your car.

For my rebuild, I will be getting either Clevite/Perfect Circle (Mahle) : http://www.summitracing.com/parts/pcr-41497cp or Sealed Power (Federal Mogul) Moly rings. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/slp-e-458k I guess the Chrome may better than just plain cast iron.
