So I got the engine out & torn down last night and all the bits off to their shops today.
Figured I better post some pics and get some thoughts from everyone...
Some of these lines are pretty bent up...I think I will look into either a new set or a partial to replace the bent ones.
Here is the passenger side head...nothing scary to my naked eye. The gasket looked good and although I am no expert I didn't see anything that jumped out at me.
Drivers side head...also nothing bad to the naked, untrained eye of mine. Also the block deck looked good.
This was stamped on the pistons....no idea what it means. But I am sure I will hear from my wifes shop if things are way out of wack.
This turbo oil return will get redone with a welded bung. The leaking must have been a real pain.
No idea what all this means but I didn't see any cracked bits and all looked good.
Well almost all...the timing chain had some slack in it. I plan to run a gear drive setup so I won't have to worry about chains any more.
