As time pass's the real truth will show up. It might not be a complete failure, but small thing like using more oil have happened to many others who have not heeded over heating items.

unbolting the a/c compressor
![]() next we removed the starter, and unbolted the flywheel from the transmission (it was too hard to get the angle for the camera, i will try to get it when we install the engine) then we unbolted the exhaust manifolds and pulled one out and left one on ![]() the fuel needed for the day ![]() it was a pretty simple process to remove the engine, next we are getting ready to pull it out, we forgot to disconnect the fuel lines just as we were hoisting the engine out!! no damage though

dude, no offense, but your buddy is wrong about your engine being unrepairable. i'm nearly 99% sure all you did was blow a headgasket. if both the block and head were warped there would be no possible way the cylinder would be able to build 199psi when you did the compression test. and even still, i would NEVER diagnose a warped head and block without physically taking it out and MEASURING it. its the only surefire way to tell for sure. and when a headgasket is 70 bucks, opposed to a $1500 longblock, i'd always recommend checking the head and block before tossing it out.

Good luck with your project. Bottom line is that when you're done, your 4Runner should be working just fine.
