Not say'n that I'm going to do this or anythign, but what are the times and how difficult is it to pull and rebuild and reinstall the engine on a 98-99 gsx?

if you dont know ablut engines dont do this!
give it to an experienced machanic to do cause if u re-build the internals and the spec are off it can and will screw up the whole engine timing cause the engine 2 preform poorly.
parts you might want 2 chang is the pistons and connecting rods, lower compression, hone the block and fix the crank walk if u have any....
i would leave it 2 a expert tho..

You don't have to pull the engine to rebuild it, just the oil pan and head. Compression is already 8.5:1, leave it or go to 9:1. The best would be to swap to a 6 bolt motor completely.
