Favourite Rebuild Pictures

I now have about 1000 KM on my rebuilt 3.2, and it is dry, there are no weird noises, and it runs great. I am waiting for some dyno time to do a A/F check before winter sets in.
I was looking through my photo archive of the project, and these are my favourite shots:
Ready to go back in:

If he was as anal about the rebuild as he is about the tools in that picture I'd be feeling pretty comfortable with his work.

I like the valve cover/gasket combination, understated and sophisticated. Are those the silicone gaskets, I remember them being red.

The PO is a student at VA-Tech and is very thorough and detail oriented with his work.

He cleaned up the engine bay while the heads were being rebuilt.

John is referring to original Pelican member kstylianos, and founder of Dorkiphus. He is a great engine rebuilder and has built some beautiful engines locally.
He's currently in the lab at VA Tech studying Mechanical Engineering and I can't wait to see his next build..it's going to be something very interesting.

Okay, I'll bite. Here's the absolutely gory before photo (water in the case rotted the oil pump at only 24k miles):



And here's the box stock, '93 3.6, back in the car after a rebuild by a first timer! The engine now has nearly 4000 trouble free miles and only a small dribble of an oil leak from a valve cover (another leak just stopped after a couple 1000 miles). It isn't as pretty or colorful as most of the above, but I'm as happy as can be. Thanks Pelicans everywhere!
