Depends on the condition of the engine...

Assuming its in good condition meaning no over-heating, no FOD, I'd do a pinch first.

Then depending on how far out of tolerance the major components are and the cost of replacement parts will determine if I rebuild it.

With an OS V-spec, a set of ceramic bearings run about 40ish, con-rod 22.00, piston/sleeve 89.99....So, if the crank is good I rebuild...
