Original automatic transmission. (Will it need rebuilding, what can be done now).

Can I do a short block and re-use the factory bolt on parts after they've been cleaned and re conditioned? I know that is also money and time and possibly not a good return on investment. Trying to save $$ as well.
It is inevitable you will have to rebuild your current cylinder heads or purchase new cylinder heads since oil is probably making it past the valve guides. There are plenty of reputable vendors out there to help you with the cylinder heads.
