Retorqued heads all nuts needed a little snugging. Adjusted valves and all were a wee bit tight. Changes oil.

The screen had a few bits mostly thread sealer with tephlon from the pushrod tube seals. A couple of filings.

The filter was really clean. I only saw i piece of loctite 518.

The oil was very dark and I filter some stuff out of it. Even found a bug but, I suspect it flew in like flies on new paint. There was some stuff including some dirt.

So dave when is it going in the car, or has it?
For me going from the stock early 1.7 to hopped up 2.0L is a hoot. I can't imagine what you will experience

Looks good to me. There is always a little residual Hylomar and such in the screen after a new rebuild. Looks like you kept it nice and clean!

Hylomar is bad about hanging out for a long time in the engine... So is the thread sealant we use on P/R tubes..

Yours looks great Dave!
