i have a honing tool so i did that myself. the head was checked with a straight edge, good and flat, so was the deck. 

This engine is only going back in till she can save up for the 3S-GTE swap. but we have to finish the turbo install on her 7th gen first.

yes all the specs are available in the BGB or techinfo.toyota.com yes i reused the rod bolts. they are TTY but they can be used again. this isnt a high performance engine.
