Rebuild bottom end or not?

[88-378]

If my compression is fine in all cylinders and the leak down test is good, would you still go ahead and rebuild a stock bottom end with 106K on the clock before an HCI install?

There are no noises and it runs fantastic with the exception of the rear main leaking which is an easy fix. what would you do?

I'd only rebuild if you were going to upgrade the parts while you were at it.

i would keep it stock and re-fresh it, but everything looks great so i will leave well enough alone.

Just doing a mild HCI anyway.

I didn't touch mine. My compression was in the 160 range on all cylinders and I didn't see the point. I did my HCI at 82,000 miles.
