Very good job, gentlemen I am amazed that there were no end gaskets on the lower I can't imagine how the car did as well as it has missing those pieces.
Hey?...Where are the pics of the clean engine bays? I was told that engine bay cleaning occured :?

Excellent work on the porting, particularly in the short time available.
I'd also like to point out how nice the LIM gaskets look. Anyone notice them in comparison to the S2 cars that use DEX?

Very true Will. I did LIM gaskets on a 97 Malibu with the 3100 with Dexcool, those poor gaskets were in absolute terrible shape. I'm glad I got my good old standard green coolant.

For the record, Tony has the receipts showing that LIM has been off twice previously to us going in this weekend. IIFC the last swapping of the LIM gaskets was not many miles ago.
Seeing that the end gaskets weren't put in place.. we understand why.

Same here. My LIM gaskets were replaced by a dealer a few years ago, and they did not do a very good job on them. When I pulled my LIM, the end gaskets were put on wrong (they have the half circle on them, they did it *** backwards), and the LIM gaskets looked like they were on there 200+k miles. It actually looks like they replaced the end gaskets and said screw the LIM'*.
