I just pulled this motor out of a 92 Camry from the yard. I got the motor at the house and start stripping it apart. I found out that they did the timing totally wrong. When I got the pulley to TDC 0, both of the cam circle points down when it's suppose to be up.

I measured the cam and crankshaft play and met manufacture specs. I found 1 blown piston and the rest are okay. Now looking at the picture is this head reuseable? and what do you recommend?

yeah. timing is kinda hard. i helped my friend rebuild a acura Integra engine, ane while i was out buying sparkplugs. he put the head on and didn't align anything, AND there were no timing marks on the crank pulley. so i had to figure that out. the first time we tried to crank it, it sucked on the exhaust side and blew out the intake.. anyway it runs now.

you putting the 3VZ in your celica??
