Default ENgine rebuild
I have a 97 GT with 163xxx miles on it. I was wondering when will the motor need a rebuild and what items should i get for an engine rebuild? I want to get better parts (R&R).

i've seen a 4.6 run for a strong 300k without even batting an eye. You could rebuild it right now, or let it run for another 100k miles. Depends on your budget.

I'll run it for another 75-100k considering my budget with a kid on the way. Thanks for the input.
