So tore apart the non-built engine in my cousin's 90 GT

So we took the heads all of the motor and almost ever valve seal was either bad or not even pushed down all the way so they were floating on the valve stem basically.:nono: No wonder it had so much oil in the combustion chamber and exhaust ports. UGH!!

The pistons are .060 over as said to be, one of the few things that was correct. I am clueless on how these heads with 2.02 valves and the E303 clear these pistons, but they do.

Installed a new oil pan since it was crushed (need pics of that), new headgaskets, valve seals, intake gaskets, etc. He did most of the work I just helped him take the motor apart and stick it back together. Cleaned/painted the motor, cleaned the plug wires, new cap/rotor, fixed some wiring and vacuum line messes, cleaned the radiator hoses up, and more.

Like to ditch the cold air for something else or get it powdercoated but we will see.

Wow, so not only did it not have the parts it was supposed to have, but it needed some work done too? Huh, real nice. :nono:

Yea, it is spotless on the inside pretty much so I believe it was rebuilt at least.

It was ok for the price, definitely not a deal. We think the rearend is kicked to the driver side too because the driver rear tire rubs and the passenger doesn't. Neither should rub it only has 255 tires and new springs/shocks/struts. :nono: It might be the ebay special control arms on it idk.

Or it was hit.

Funny you mention that, I looked at a fox a couple years ago before I bought this one and the rear end on that was knocked out as well. The seller was trying to tell me that his mechanic put it in that way and it's fine because it would still pass inspection. :nono:
