@PhoenixAwaken – Any cold-start issues, knocking, excessive valve noise, or oil consumption? Does it burn or leak oil? ...

@JJboom72 – Thank you for bringing that to my attention. I honestly hadn't even realized that happened. The original photos could not be uploaded onto here initially. They had to be resized and re-uploaded. That was all done on a mobile device which, unfortunately, automatically enhanced the resolution. I believe that is what caused the distortions. I can assure you that the photos are true to life. Here are some of the photos prior to the "auto-enhancments": ...
Thanks.
@WhiteCrayon – These images look enhanced with an algorithm or AI. Is this intentional or were the photos taken with a smartphone that maybe enhanced them... I'm really asking are how true to life are theses photos? ...
