Blowen Engine 700

I intend that if i am going to be pulling to head to also get a rebuilt kit while i am at it and replace the piston's and connecting rod's, id rather have a nice new/rebuilt engine than a pieced together one, it will be parked for awhile as a project, i intend to restore it the best i can engine wise, once done ill drive it and park my 89 745 and rebuild that one as it is already at 266k id like to get in there before 300k and get the connecting rod's replace as such ill do the whole thing.

When i was looking at the car i got more of the fealing of a blowen head more or less, so if he did overheat it i think the head gasket was the cause of the overheat, if the pistons shot and the block survived which is very possible being it cast iron replacing the piston's isnt a big deal, my time is only worth what what i am doing with it at the time.

So far ive got on the list

Head / Head Gasket
Piston's
Connection Rod's
Possible turbo rebuild, need to inspect turbo.
