Crankcase is halved and almost all parts have been ripped off.
Distributor gear and main gear are still on the crankshaft.
They are not so easy to take away, the distributor gear has to be heatened, but how to take the main gear off...

Crankcase has been cleansed in a chamber washer.

Distributor gear and main gear are now off.
Distributor gear was heatened and taken off with a pull-out tool.
Main gear was pulled out after doing some filing to the bearing under it. It was not heatened.

Keiteleen kone in Helsinki supplied me with some parts to put in my engine, new cylinders and pistons, hiperf cam, hiperf tappets, hiperf pushrod tubes, hiperf coil (blue), front axle lowering kit, hiperf ball-jointed rocker adjuster screws.
 
tappet=cam follower = tösseli=venttiilin nostaja
pushrod tube = työntötangon suojaputki
coil=puola
ball-jointed rocker adjuster screws
               = pallonivelöidyt venttiilinsäätöruuvit

Some more parts from Keiteleen kone:
crankshaft pulley, Bosch 009 distributor, "cooltin" plates.
And also used 1600cc cylinder heads.

Crankcase was machined to 1.5mm oversize.
Also a VW special tool no. 313 (engine stand) was installed to my workshop table so that the reassembly will be easier.

Reassembly has begun!!!
The crankshaft has been assembled with rods, bearings, gears etc.
Engine blocks have been painted with temperature resistant black spray.

Some technical data to remember: (for my own memory backup...)
Crankcase machined to +1.5mm (ext), and axial gap to +2mm (fl)
Crankshaft machined to 0.25mm (int), crankshaft separation 2 hundreds

• During April, reassembly of the engine is going on..

All the parts are inside !!!
Engine block halves are tightened to correct torque.
Some external stuff still missing, oil pump, cylinders etc.

Here is a picture presenting the handy engine stand.

Oil pump is installed and 2 cylinders.
Cylinder head is going to be the next one.

On the left you can see my cylinder head (1mm lowered).
And cylinders+pistons.

All four cylinders plus heads are installed. This starts to look like something!!!

And here it is installed on my Oval with Weber 36IDFs.
