People following this thread for a while may remember that I was suggested to do a V8 swap. I was insistent that I wanted to run the 4 cylinder and get it driving though. Well - I got a full summer (2021) out of it before the head gasket went on my 2.5L. Turns out your heater hose falling off and dumping all of the coolant on the highway isn't great for the head warping... Regardless, I decided it was time to upgrade! So here are the pictures of me removing the 2.5L.

As others have said, nice job on an amazing restoration. Nice to see you wheeling it. Also V8s are good
