New bearings or not?
Well just picked up a 5.3 l33 short block with around a 100k on it just wondering whether I should go ahead and just put new bearing and rings in the motor since it would be easy to do now and be a worry out of my mind

I am going down this same path...
I assume any of the bolts that are taken off of the rods / mains car re-useable and nothing to really watch out for other than proper torque sequence after replacing bearings?
I will probably not take the pistons out of their bore, just new bearings and go.
