No offense zac but i have to set a limit for myself. There are a million "while your in there" things to do, gotta know when to stop. Ive done it before.

But on a good note. The motor only has 90k miles. Its been sitting up for 4 years, sealed. I took the oil pan off to change to a different one and everything inside was spotless. Cylinder walls still had crosshatch, pan had zero signs of metal. Timing chain was tight from what i could see.
