Engine rebuild
The goal is to bring the engine to a reliable state capable of daily driver duties and family outings. Yes, the head gasket is one of the items that will be replaced along with resurfacing the heads and doing a valve job. Would you suggest that I replaced any other components? Other parts for replacement are listed below.
Radiator
Water pump
Thermostat (low temp variation)

Help
I have managed to strip the head bolt on the passenger side closest to the firewall (the pain in the *** one to remove). I'm afraid I stripped it pretty good using a 1/4 inch 5/8 socket and a huge breaker bar, with a wobble extension. Not sure how to address this new issue, any takers? (video to come soon)
