Valves are finally out after much grief.

It actually surprised me, no scrubbing at all, did not corrode the metal, and worked fast(15-30 min). I don't have a pic of the piston, but it is much more evident on it. Here's a preview:
I'd say the finish on the engine block has seen better days. Cool photo though.
Block is almost stripped. I cannot believe the force that it's taking to get the crankshaft gear off. I've got a proper puller now, but it did not have the right thread and diameter bolts. I'm going to try and get some tonight.
It's getting crowded over there. I hope I don't catch the sheet on my belt or something (knock on wood).
Updates will ensue as they occur.
