7MGE Engine rebuild

The block did not take but 2 days to do - it was the head that took so long - 2 weeks. But the total time in the shop was over a month due to needing to find enough POP CANS to get it out.

BTW - The cylinders were only Honed but not boared so that saved some money. After 20 years they were still good but you really need to at least get them honed to get a good ring seal.

Been driving like new since the job.
