looks like they didnt change the oil much , for a daily driver could have gone another 100k with the right maintenance , but it was not going to hold for what im doing , im just gona build it up right to hold more boost of what i had planed , i think im going to try to hit 4 digits on the hp !!!!! lol

Nice progress on the motor tear down. I found out the same thing on the balancer puller a few years back. I would love to have a lift like that too.
Can't wait to see this one come together.
