it's messed up that happened to the cam cap and the crack on the cylinder too. did you tune it by measurring the voltage on the o2 sensor?











i couldn't resist. ;D good luck on the swap and rebuild :-*

is there some reason you dropped the trans then the block?

the 2 times i've had my sohc out i just pulled it out as one big unit.
Drained everything
Unplugged all the ----
Removed axles
Attached hoist
Removed mounts
Lifted motor

then disassembled out of the car; it was very easy :)
last time i pulled the motor my friend my little brother and my self had the bulk of the work done in < 2hrs. We didnt pull the motor because i forgot my chain but we had it sitting on the ground the next day in < 30 minutes :)

word, ive pulled several single cams out this way....1hr 30 mins tops to pull car into shop and have it pulled out. Thats with alot of chances to do it very closely together. The first time took me maybe 3 hours...and the second time I cut an hour off of that.

Wow looking at that mess I am so glad I bought my engine hoist. Engine and tranny out the top by myself very quickly. Chris you should buy or rent one to do the reinstall. Will save you time and is much safer.

Yeah definately. I'm going to rent one when the time comes just because I don't need one sitting around my house. It's about $30 a day and you really wouldn't need it anymore than that. But it's a buttload safer. Having one of those 3 jacks slip out and having the oil pan crammed into your face could ruin your whole day ;)
