Engine disassembly

Well, we finally got the engine pulled apart. Due to the amount of oil caked up around the crankcase it made it difficult to find the last 3 bolts but we got there in the end.
Thankfully most of the internals are in good condition. The crank, conrods, pistons and cylinders are ok. There is some wear on the camshaft so I am not too sure if that can be machined or I will need a new one. All the bearings have some wear so those are going to be replaced, as well as the rings. The heads need some work so I will need to get new valve guides put in and new seats also. I might as well get as much done as possible while the engine is out then I won't have to worry about it for a while.

Engine before

We spent a good day just cleaning all the muck off the crankcase. I couldn't believe how stubborn oil could be. Shiny!
