everyone else chimed in on how to rebuild these engines re valves/rings. My 2 cents is "Why rebuid a b21 or a b230? If they are very highmilage with know oilburnig etc maybe, but most of these engines are still good, I would change the front and rear seal and leave it at that. With decent maintenance a B21/B230 should be able to do at least 500,000 miles. Of course maybe you just want to have some fun, in which case by all means go ahead.
