Well, I got together some of my pictures from pulling my motor out and I figured i'd toss them up for all to see. I blew a headgasket and began to have an overheating problem. Here is a brief collection of pictures from the last week.
Engine out... Ive gotten comments of "where did all your wires and hoses go?"
The beast with no heart!
Hey look... there are all my hoses and wires!
Up on the stand... Finally!
All cleaned up and ready for disassembly.
Headbolts can be tough to remove... Electric impact FTW!
Not too bad for 160k miles huh?
Is that factory cross-hatching I see there?
So all in all, what do you guys think? Looks pretty good so far huh?
I think that impact is bad a$$! the motor doesnt ok bad at all. What are those things connecting your header bolts? What are your plans for the new motor?
