*****UPDATE*****
Well Crank and Pistons with new shells are in!
Goes round so smoothly! Feels great 
So here's some photos...
Crank in.

2.0l looks small to a 4.7 V8 

Pistons are quite a bit smaller too 


Should be getting more done over the weekend, didn't have too much time this evening

***** The Update I have been waiting for *****
Basically going to just put photos up and explan after 
Here goes:

















Basically it is all in and running, pulls great but the manifold is too low like others said it would be 
Such a huge difference to what it was like!
Left to do are change the manifold, paint the rocker cover. I need to get a final finished photo as well
