Caim is on a distinguished road
In the motors that i build that did not have detramental damage to them... i go the route of getting the following.

Oil controle rings unless you have the viton ones they last a while ha. Oil controle rings last a long time.

As far as side seals i would buy about 3 or 4 of them so that way if you brake one or two of them when you are taking them out you have them. All side seals are good for about 300k miles. We measured the average wear on them and the minimal they could be and that is what we came up with.

New apex seals are needed and go with all new apex springs and side seal springs as well. As the side seal springs can be a pain and bend when you take them out. And yeah.

New gaskets are needed as i am sure you know, but that is as far as i go with the rotors. It works for me every time unless something really bad happened to the motor.
