Rebuilding 1098 for MKIII driver. Engine apart for more than 10 years but at that time the block was cleaned and surfaced along with the head (both covered with tape for storage). Crank and new bearing as well as cam was installed at the time of storage. The rocker assembly had some surface rust on the shaft and on the pressed rockers as well. PB Blaster and wire brush cleaned it up and allowed disassembly and further cleaning. The lifters and pushrods have surface rust but no pitting. My question is: must I go back with all new or can I cleanup and reuse knowing that I may have to rebuild again in 10-20,000 miles?
