Rebuild question

The rebuild done on my car lists the following and I am curious if it was a thorough rebuild:
Remove and replace rings, send cylinder heads for valve replacement, valve job, new intake and exhaust studs, valve guides, front and rear crank seals, reseal breather housing and int. shaft.

Is this what should have been done in a proper rebuild? Why didn't they put in a new clutch when they had the d*mn engine out?

Thanks,

Greg

Good question. How many miles are on the car, and how many when it was rebuilt? Did it get a clutch prior to the rebuild? And did they do the updates to the clutch when it was replaced? Search for an earlier thread today where Richard L gives a ton of good info for G50 owners.

Right now the car has 244,000 and the rebuild was done at 216,000. It drives well but, it seems that you'd just naturally drop in a new clutch with a rebuild at that many miles. I looked at all the records kept on the car (can you say anal retentive?) and there is no mention of the clutch at all.
