Paint: Had to use a 4" grinder to get crud off block and pan. It will get new paint.

Inside: Was full of carbon and gunk. Found dead mice in one head. How do they get there??? Some rings were stuck. Sure glad we tore it down and cleaning everything. Crud on scraper was on top of one piston.

Based on length, Can we call it a long block?

Progress: One bolt at a time.
