1/2 way of project intercooler
I started into the project a little sooner than I'd planned after breaking off the water neck bolts in the head.
As best I can tell, it had never been apart in its 21 year history. Still had the original factor head gasket. That's pretty amazing because those head gaskets were known to blow out if you looked at them the wrong way. Based on the coloring of the valves, it looks like it was running pretty well too.
Because it had never been apart, many things were stuck. I've not got about a half a dozen broke of bolts and studs to try to work out.
