OK Aaron, Take a deep breath,slow down and take it easy. All is well. You are going through "Oh my God I bought a VW- Its now in a million pieces- what have I gotten myselve into- Is bank robbery legal ? Syndrome". You do ONE thing at a time. You have to stop trying to restore this Bug in your mind every night. It will drive you insane. PATIENT !!
Simply put, we going to replace rod/main and cam bearings. Hopefuly thats all. Re-assemble out though the piston/cylinders.(short block).
You install the heads/tin etc. This was what we talked about. I don`t need heads
