Default need to rebuild my motor again. What do i need.

My rings aren't sitting properly. I didn't gap them right. My bad. Anyways, The car has put 2500 miles since then.

What gaskets are reusable and what need to be replaced. (eg oil pan, oil seals, head gasket, head bolts,...?)

Once a gasket is compressed it is no longer reusable. such as headgasket. those paper gaskets you can reuse but more than likely they rip during disassemble so just plan on buying new gaskets all around

i've used old gaskets before and hadn't had a problem. of course it was without the car being started.

I reuse just about every gasket. 2500 miles is nothing. You may have to replace your headgasket if it seperates when you take the head off.

What pistons are you running?

running toda pistons. no one is really clear about the specs on these. Most people say stock clearances though.
