I bought this motor earlier today from Jarco INC, and just figured that i would be spending a lot more time on this sub-forum now, so well here it is pics of my new motor. I am picking it up Monday.



Engine has 107k miles, but before it was taken out it had a 100k mile tune up done, with new belts and all. when i get it ill most likely do a comeplete gasket rebuild kit, new Front/Rear Main Seal, new water pump, new oil pump/fuel pump (probably OEM replacements if i can find any), and a new driveshaft, other than that, i should be ready to go.. Looking forward to this build. Stay tune for updates!

Yeah that is by far the cleanest block/transmission I've seen. Take it from many of us before going to far in the replacement process...don't pull the head unless you're willing to rebuild the entire thing. It is best to just get it installed and running and rebuild it if you blow it up.
