So today the engine kicked my butt. I learned how frustrating it can be to remove a harmonic balancer from a crank. At the end of today, the engine was given a good scrub, dried out, removed the heads, removed the oil pan, inspected the lifters, etc. The cam has some pitting on it. Everything I'm reading says to replace it but I can't find a replacement. I might just throw it back in. The engine worked fine when it was pulled and it had ~110,000 miles on it. I dunno. I need to get seals and everything anyways so I've got some time.
Aside from the broken intake studs, exhaust studs, and cam it's really not bad.
