Ya,

It looks pretty good, although my engine guy is a bit concerned about the amount of rust on the face of the block. But he assures me he will clean it all up and have it looking as good as new when he's done. He said over all, considering the mileage (94 000KM) everything looks really good. I had to replace the waterpump and the smooth idler pulley as they were really worn. Doing the timing set as well just because of the mileage and the fact that we were right there anyways. I'm hoping all will get buttoned up by next weekend so I can take it to the local cruise in at Pony Corral.

Definitely looking good!!
A little bit of rust is a good thing to a certain point,it just means that you had now gasket leaks!!
