    fitting just new shells and hoping is bad practise. costly and normally won't cure the problem.

    total rebuild , and check old engine if you rebuild it what caused the oil starvation in the first place to damage it.

    or replace engine

    oil= always use best oil you can afford be it semi or fully synthetic
    because it just had to be done

    Best to contact a local engine reconditioners, they'll have all the specs for a re grind.

    A second hand good engine will be a lot cheaper to source and fit than a total rebuild.
