Can a 2.2 be rebuilt?
Got a '84 Dodge Rampage, in pretty good shape except the engine is low on compression 120-120-110-115 and oil pump is worn out or bad bearings, the oil pressure is just up 25% of the dial.
Can you still buy new rings/pistons/valves/bearings /gasket kit for this old of a engine?
If not is there another engine and 5 speed tranny I could drop into the motor compartment to fit to the front drive axle?

to be sure all the parts are available before I take this engine out and have a mechanic put new rings and head job on it. Someone offered me a used 2.2 with around 100K on it for $850 but thought that is too much for an engine with that many miles on it already.
