Hi there
you may have seen my cracked manifold in the media section.
however, today i have finished pulling apart my Z31 engine this one had done 300,000 kms and it was still running realy nicely. For the crank on the mains and the rods there was NOT a mark or score on it, i couldn't believe it of all the chevs fords toyota's mazda's and rover engines ive helped pull apart and rebuid this vg30 had done the higest mileage and had the least wear in the bores and the crank. The head Gaskets were ready to pop by how easy the head was to lift off but man its so not worn out. I do need a new harmonic balance pully after i used the incorrect puller on it. ( now i have the correct one for next time )
the timing seems to be one tooth out on the cylinder bank to the right hard to see in that picture.
Before this thing goes to my engine man is there anything you recomend aside from the usual ( honing,crankshaft polish new rings+bearings,valve seating oh and a head surface and a block deck surface )
