The engine does not get rebuilt, just resealed. The heads are not coming off. For sure a valve adjustment and check the head studs, but unless there is a surprise this is just a re-seal. I have a big pile of sheet metal to clean up this weekend. Golly that will be fun.

It will be nice to see a MUCH cleaner engine. It will not be fresh and new but the leaks will be stopped.
