Tonka's engine arrived back from the engineers:

Reground crank, new bearings, new seals, new timing gear, bored out to +30, new pistons and rings, skimmed head, new valves.... and more

I've not finished cleaning up the engine bay yet so I'll not rush to put it back in just yet.

Very nice but you need to clean the paint off where the manifold gasket will go
and shurely a re-paint in an appropriate shade of Military reconditioned engine blue-green.  :wooly-jumper

Might be wrong but I think your Pro Comp shock absorber is fitted upside down! The rod (covered by the rubber boot) should be at the top IIRC although mine are long gone.

I think you are right, I have the metal shrouded type but principal is the same.
