When you buy a non running car, honestly I have no idea how to measure the compression. The engine might have run but you can never tell in what condition unless you open the entire block and review. That was out task and we decided right from the beginning to make ALL completely new and not saving any expenses.
A senior mechanic gave me a smart advise: “Make sure you have enough picture before you disassemble” That is what I did.
Detailed documentation of Engine rebuild
77010 cylinder head empty 
77010 crankshaft bottom side 
Installing the engine from underneath
New torque converter 
installed with bell housing 
All nice and clean 
only need to sorce another stone guard. 
Loaded on a pallet 
and pulled to the lifted car 
Here a “bird view” 
It is all tight and narrow 
but with both …. lowering the lift 
or lifting the pallet. 
it is all about mm’s 
This is the moment 
to check the clearance 
… at the gear box output 
as well as the front pulleys 
Here we have just made it 
Getting the engine mounting brackets 
in place and tightening 
Then we could lift the car 
… and had a view from underneath 
Looks to be in good place 
… just as before but lot of work inbetween.
