Engine disassembly Day 2

Today Eli finished disassembling the engine while I was at work.  That consisted of him removing the harmonic balance (thanks for the tool Pawpaw):

Then he removed the timing cover, water pump, and crank shaft.
After that he scraped all the gaskets and cleaned out the piston ring grooves.  While he was busy I finished welding on the passenger side fender apron patches.
Also, we found this tacked to the side of the engine.  Turns out it's a re-manufactured engine.  And we might have ordered the wrong sized rings.  More on that to come...

This day cost: $0
Total project cost: $3,000.68
