Today we did a bleed down, compression check and ran a fiber camera through the exhaust and up from the removed oil pan.
All is back in place now.
We are happy to see no visual pot holes.
Now I move to engine test stand.
The stand will actually be the sub frame with removable casters for later maintenance.
I have the new cooling tube on the way for behind the oil filter housing.

This is happening because of all your help.
Thank you again.
Once action begins with a running engine I will share all the steps.
Drive safe.
