Lots of pictures!!! :D

Spent most the day cleaning the block, pistons, crank, cams, cam caps ready for the rebuild took ageessss!!

Took some bits off the GT engine like the thermo housing, TRD leads and dizzy and rocker cover because they will be going on the new engine. Was shocked to see how MINT the head was when I removed the cam cover, well compared to the one off the engine going in anyway, but thats in the process of left to soak in TFR over night.

Anyway some piccys :)
