8/23/24: Pulled off the oil pump and water pump but nothing of note
8/24/2024: I pulled the wrist pins out and took the pistons out there was extensive damage on all the piston skirts and there was a broken piece between two rings on one piston. once the pistons were out I took off all extra things on the block and removed all the bolts holding it together. I then split it apart and inspected the camshaft and rods. all but one of the rods were in good condition but the crankshaft and the crankshaft bearing were beat up and grooved. The one visibly bad rod had the bearing basically melted on and was very black from the heat.
I plan to take the block to a machine shop and have them hone it and the heads, but I will ask how much it will cost to machine the crankshaft and camshafts, if it is over the amount I would pay for good used ones it is not worth it.
