I call them clean only because when I first get them they are always black gunk oil colored and after wards they have a color heh. I do have a 150 psi air tank and plan on getting a powder coater and sand blaster. My biggest problem with that is I currently dont have a way to bake the parts. So that idea is still up in the air.
Today I pulled my first engine! With the help of blazebolt, and the use of a fork lift, I got the 6 bolt bottom end out of the donor car. I got the timing belt cover, along with all the pulleys and gears, oil pump front case, tensioner, and all the bolts to go with it. I think I need only the valve cover to be considered done with the non wear items for the stock 6 bolt part list. It took us 5 hours to get the engine out, mostly due to the fact we left the tranny in the car (couldn't get the axels out) but both blazebolt and I know after that experience on our 2Gs, we will be def pulling the tranny up with the engine.
Blazebolt went over the g4cs engine with me and everything looks good to go. As soon as I am available to go to the machine shop, the engine goes in, and I go digging through vendors websites to find the best deals on parts to finish finding everything I need
Here are the pics, see you guys soon!
