Graphic engine images: what's missing?

Okay what's wrong with this picture. I'm trying to put this back together but with the baby and the actual full time job I'm very sleep deprived. Do you see anything missing or any issues whatsover? Any parts I should replace now from what you see? Thanks

This is a real can of worms! Was it put together properly? What was done and was the person qualified? What was wrong initially?

That crank pulley looks like it was put on backwards to me. Is that even possible? Anyone else?

Tom, you're smarter than you're average panda. What was your impression when you spoke to the guy? Strange fellow but price is right if I haven't bit off more than I can chew. I hate coming into the middle of someone's project. Even things you know look right you still wonder about.

Yep. Looks backwards to me, too. It is possible with the same bolt. Just ask me.
Good catch, Fabio.

seriously, how? isn't the mounting surface all the way at one end. If you flip it over the bolt will be like 4 inches too short, no?

1. Your chain tensioner oil supply line on the one head shot is not installed yet.
2. The main "vacuum line" on the bottom of the TB is not present on the front picture: this is the large line that eventually goes to the brake booster & intake manifold side plenum (driver's side).
3. One of the far right water pump bolts is actually about 3" long as the bolt holds the plastic cover over the water pump: test fit that.
4. Numbers on the crank pulley are read from looking at the front of the engine: if read from the windshield side, that's incorrect.

Pour oil over all the cam lobes/lifters and turn over once, then do it again before you install the valve covers: a good preventative maintenance item since it'll be a dry startup.

Intersting: it isn't there, but the Air pump bracket that's part of the tensioner housing is: might need more photos on this part...hmm.
