Almost ready, down to a fuel pump, the one on it wasn't hooked up to anything (it was running on an electirc pump). Tomorrow when Napa opens, I am buying a pump and finishing it up.
Found something interesting, the fuel pump runs on a shaft that gets a bump from the cam. This shaft is about as big around as my index finger and made of steel, and it was snapped in half still in the block, a clean break. I recovered both peices, but now I really want to open the oil pan and check things out some more.
I also think I fugured out what made the other engine go out, it had a recent water pump change, and between the water pump/timing cover plate and the blcok, there was no silicone or gasket!!! This explains the antifreeze in the oil which is probably what wiped out the bearings.
Once it is ready, I will post up a date/time to reinstall it.
