I thought I only needed to replace the head gasket at first, possibly the timing chain. When I took off the oil pan to get the broken plastic timing guides, I found the trust washers and realized I would need a total rebuild. Engine in the photo is out of an '83 Toyota Celica with the domed pistons

Gotta love taking a computer desk and turning it into a work station in your living room, but I don't currently have a garage, and needed a good spot to work.

Image of the LCE Oil Crank Scraper installed. I'm running a separate oil cooler, and remote dual ford 3001 filter set up on the rig. I'm estimating she will take 7-8 quarts of Royal Purple to fill her up, and with the adjustable oil pressure bypass, high oiling rocker arms, HD oil pump, and cooler, I figured a crank scraper would help keep the oil from foaming in the pan, and ensure that the pick up was always submerged. It's normally a racing guy thing to keep extra weight off your rotating assembly, but I got it to keep my oil where it's supposed to be.

Worn through timing chain cover. The scary thing is that I didn't have a dual row chain....the two very different distinct wear lines are from the thrust bearings coming out and the crank had 1/4" of play front to back in it! That's what ultimately trashed the block.

Close up shot of the Ultra Grey silicone around the front timing cover area. (yeah, I copper coated my head gasket...I know some don't, but I do.)

Installing the long block by myself in the gravel drive. Ratcheting Straps helped me "level" or angle the engine correctly on the way in.

Waiting to get the intake in....Using a K&N for the first 500 miles of break-in oil, then switching to a remote oil cooler with 2 3001 large capacity Ford Oil Filters. Clean Cool Oil = Very long engine life.

Almost finished with the install. Just a few more vac. lines to hook up and hoses to swap out.

Relocated the VSV Vacuum Switches to the Firewall instead of on top of the Valve cover. I had to extend the wiring, but it really helped clean up the top of the motor.
