Look at it this way; just about the whole car is new. Now you'll have a motor to match.
Good luck, hope it's not too "painful".
Dave, well, I don't think it will be too terrible. It does still turn over remarkably well with what seems to be some excessive end play, hope we can save the crank and rods. Springs on the heads look to be set up poorly so I'm sure valvetrain will be dealt with now too.
