It'll never be cleaner than now! What's it going into?

Original engine had 55,000 original miles on it but had seized valves got oversized pistons and new valves had heads machined new valve guides springs . I only had to replace one tap pet roller all the gears looked good . Honed the cylinders and put a new replica oil pump on it . Rebuilt my Linkert which wasn't bad even tho it sat in my dads shed for 32 years .
