Coffee Table?

A.

2009/3/22 Scott Cypher <srcypher at mac.com>:
> Tore down 2 GT6 long blocks to see what's salvagable and store the
> bits so they don't take up valuable floor space.  One had been
> outside uncovered for years.  Pistons fused to the block, rods fused
> to the wrist pins, lifters fused in the bores.  Crank looks
> savagable, but I can't get it out, since the rods don't move.  :(
> Other than the head, a total write off.
>
> Started teardown of a 3rd, but couldn't get the head off; rope trick
> didn't work with all the studs still in place; have to pull 'em and
> try again...

> Thanks
