Nice! I wasn't around for the original build, so I guess I'll have to look at that old thread whenever I have the chance to.

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!! finally got enough time off to get something done. So me and my dad got to it and it was super easy sense this is like my 3rd or 4th time pulling an engine out of this damn car.









So everything went smooth new im going to drop the sub frame with the trans and then pressure wash everything and hit it with a wire wheel then throw some paint on everything.The only snag we hit were the 4 bolt that attache the engine to the stand were to small so i got to run out and get some other ones then ill have pics of it on there and the tear down im very interested to see what the motor looks like its got over 200k on it

Bad News

Soooo small crappy update we started remolding the garage a few months ago so i boxed up all my parts into big plastic bins to protect them. Well turns out water somehow got into the bin and the rods and lifter were just sitting in water and I didn't realize till today when we started unpacking stuff that water had gotten in there and the rods and lifters got a ton of rust on them I have a sand blasting cabinet and im hoping i can spray them with some light grit plastic or glass bead and get all the rust off and see if there still going to be usable.

What about trying a rust removal solution before using the sand blaster? It might not be as abrasive as the sand that could damage the pieces... Just a thought... Hopefully they're ok!!

Small update i ended up trying the rust remover(WD-40 rust remover soak) as tw0123 recommended and it turned out really well all the surfaces on the rods are all smooth now although there still discolored were the rust was. Anyways here some pics of the rods now lifter are still soaking and im hoping to tear into the motor thats on the engine stand next month and see if im able to use it.

Ask and you shall receive lol the lifters seem to be all fixed i accidentally left them in for 3 day instead of the 24 hrs but there doesn't seem to be any damage as a result of that




And as of now the rods and lifters are going to stay in a nice bath of some 10W50 i had laying around forever and finally decided to put to some use lets see them rust in that lol
