Wouldnt it be a bitch to do a "half rebuild" and get it installed only to find out that you now have a coolant seal leak and have to pull it all back out and apart?

I guess another way of lookng at it is that the cost of a half rebuild vs that of a full rebuild is probably <$500. IS it worth it to you to take that chance over a couple weeks' salary?
