Thanks again...

Right - very important. As much as I like to sell engine rebuild parts, there's no need to rebuild an engine that doesn't need it (the Ferrari disease!). Make sure that you have determined that you really need to rebuild prior to tearing it down.
I didn't think so at the time, but this article has become the number one useful article on this (and the BMW) site. I'm actually including it as a project in the new BMW book.
Everyone who thinks their engine is dead should read it first...
