The valvetrain appears to be in good shape, upon site and the oil that is in the crankcase appears to be surprisingly clean. Any advise as to how in depth I should get on the tear down? Should I take it to a machine shop to have it Magnafluxed? Thanks for the help, I think this will be a good engine! 
Whad you do?!?
