KA: disassembly

So it's time I get something done. I have a KA that needs to be rebuilt and go into a red hatch I have. Part uno; take it apart. Started with the valve cover, intake and exhaust manifolds, accessories and engine mounts. Here's what that looks like:

It was pretty crappy in there. Before I got the motor, water got in it and mixed with the oil, separate from the cooling system. Pretty gross..

Next was the cam gear bolts, gears, upper timing chain, upper timing cover, and timing sprocket. As well as the cams and cam caps. That completes the head portion (short of removing the head bolts and head itself).

And now the head removed:

Now oil pan off, front cover/oil pump off, and flipped upside down:

Then removed the mainline girdle and the pistons/rods. Called it a day.. More tomorrow!
