4A-GE head work

[Ivan141]

haha, dont you just love babelfish translations :lol:
It seems like a reasonably standard & good overhaul of an engine.
I dont see anything about new pistons though, so they are probably just reused in the honed bores.
I wonder why they always paint the engineblock with special engine paint and always leave the head aluminium. I know that the alloy head does not need paint for rust prevention, but it would be fun to see a painted cilinder head for once.
The porting does not look very appealing to me, though it rarely does. He didnt polish anything, which is at least a good thing.
I want to do this to my old engine, but I cant seem to get the cogwheel of of the crank (the one that drives the timing belt). Does anyone have any suggestions for that?

Once I get that off I can take off the oil pump and remove the crankshaft.
Then have the block cleaned, bored out to first oversize and have the deck straightened. Then a coat of paint and petroleum jelly and it's back on the shelf to wait for funds for wiseco low-com pistons.
