I'd Love to learn how to build a motor and there is a lot of guides especially this hybrid motor. 

I need to find a good machine shop first

5/7 will read everything you post about the build. Sounds like a fun time

Will see how we go.

I think your build title is apropriate here kyle...

In life there is always a silver lining I suppose and if you think too much into it you'll go mad!

Bad news
I've got the head back and freshly machined flat, Everything was looking good until I discovered cylinder 3 was significantly lower than cylinder 2 when set to those pistons TDC. also Cylinder 3 is touching the wall on one side and you can see the ring on the other

That would explain my blowby I've had since day one of getting the rebuild back. To say I'm gutted would be an understatement.

I think its time to bite the bullet and build a 5sgte. Time to find a camry motor and start piecing this build together right, My way.
