Message	I have no experience on cars but generally handy... I did the radiator a couple months ago. The next week I did the water pump. The next week I pulled the engine. The next week I tore engine down and took the head and block to be inspected. The next week I bought a JDM engine and tore it down (my JDM has some decent parts but definitely not plug and play. Broken coil packs, bad injectors, rusted sprockets all around, coolant sludge). Putting it all back together...? That'll be next week, I guess. I am most dreading putting the transmission back in. Been a lot of time and money. Resources here and elsewhere online have been phenomenal. Timing belt tech, engine replacement tech, engine reassembly tech...
