ca4244@essex, thanks! But, it's not like I had ever done this before (and I'm not in the car business, I'm just a simple IT guy
 ). But I'm just really interested in cars (especially Jap cars) and always wanted to rebuild one (AE86 at first, but this S12 came as the perfect opportunity). So why not give it a try?  tim murphy, thanks!  bigdaves12, thanks. It's a lot of work taking everyting out and putting it back. And I just can't get it over my heart to put something dirty back in, so I always end up cleaning for hours So what has happened the past weeks - Retape the S12 harness (lots of degrease and tape work  )- Mount the S12 harness - mounting various bits Some pics before/after         Rebuild engine: - new sealings - new bearings (ACL race) - cleaning oil pump - cleaning pistons since I'm using the OEM ones - new piston rings - mounting revised head - mounting inlet and some other various bits Some detail pics of the mid engine & head     As the engine is sitting atm:   Found a perfect set of blue S2000 seats  The color is really spot-on, couldn't suit better with the S12 blue!

Thx!!!!
 On first sight they will need some adjustments! I'll try to make notes of it all when I get to that part and maybe I can write a DIY But that'll probably be something I'll do once she's finished (in 6-12 months from now?)
