Finishing up my rebuild. Left to do: need to clean the injectors, and repair the wiring harness.
Overall, the process seemed to go pretty much as expected. I checked and measured everything, so I'm really hoping everything works.
While I cleaned everything (and I mean everything, down to every last bolt) I opted to paint only the valve covers and manifolds. Not a fan of the bright colors, so I left the nice aluminum on the block alone, and "restored" the valve covers & manifolds back to a nice metal color.
Planning to install the engine later this week or the weekend. I have this 4 point lift leveler: https://www.amazon.com/Torin-T32100-...+lifting+hooks
So I'll need to find some hooks, and it looks like I can only do a 2-point lift instead of 4. Maybe some carabiners?

Repaired air leak, rear window felt guide had slid down in the channel and was cupping/sending outside air against my neck. Slid them both up (both rear doors) and lubed felt guide. No more driving as if the windows are open...whoo hoo!
Lubed rear door latch, opens now...whoo hoo!
Adjusted drivers wiper...no more hitting the pillar plastic piece...whoo hoo!
Three for three tonight...so I quit while I was ahead.
