ok, currenty my 98 z camaro is in the shop, the engine that was put in the car before i bought it came from a junkyard

just found this out today, and the guys at the shop say it runs strong as hell! but has high miles on it, now, the water pump is getting replaced in the car right tomorrow, would have it rebuilt and take a chance for the money to come out of your pocket and my warrenty not cover the rebuild? or.....

should i replace my rod bolts and bearings? and new intake, and replace the whole valve train? and a new cam? will this pretty much be a rebuild? need answers fast thanks

slap it back together and drive it no point in doing that on a tired motor and if you need the car back soon thats more down time. in the meen time find a used short block or engine and biuld it in your garage and save labor cost . but thats my 2cents
