Most of your pics show up for me, a few near the top of the previous page are question marks but all the recent ones are good.

making progress :smt003

Finally put the motor together with o-ring stroker head. Did leak-down test, fixed a leak at one of the bolts in the intake manifold.
Squish 1.02mmm/1.03mm and compression 122&123psi L&R respectively. Learnt that the compression goes after breaking in.
Happy with the outcome.
