800HO rebuild or rings?

Pull it out, put on bench and tear it right down. Pull crank out to inspect, clean and re grease bearings, install new seals, seal cases back up and then do the top end. For the extra couple hours and 150 bucks for I so flex and seals. It's worth it. Seen guys do just top end and mag seal leak right after, lean out and burn down. My .02

DRD, replaced the carb boots and reeds last year! They'll be checked again but should be alright still.
