I've heard good things about Seafoam
Waddayathink?
Then again I've heard high nitrogen fertilizer and some diesel fuel can solve a lot of problems as well...

Last known use boat anchor
Not sure what the question was/is though from the location of the oil pipe and a few other bits it looks like it is out of a Chevy CMP. If your question is it rebuild-able the question is going to be how did the water get in. If it is down through the intake possible candidate for complete rebuild. If the head or block have any cracks then probably not worth the effort.
Cheers Phil

No question. I just thought I'd share. That engine is done with no real hopes of resurrection without divine intervention.
The reason for dismantling the engine is to get the pesky thing to turn over so I can remove the bellhousing. HA! Had I known it looked like that I would have pulled the crankshaft first rather than wasting my time with the head. I have rebuilt a 1953 235 XL for when the time of motivation (the truck's, not mine) comes.

Shayne, I had one like that that I needed to remove the bellhousing from. I ended up torching the crank in two just ahead of the rear main so I could get it apart.

Turning it over
If you sand out the rust, and then pour some diesel in each cylinder and set fire to the diesel, the heat from the slow burning fuel will warm things up, and probably free it up. You may even get enough heat from the little bit that sits around the outside of the piston with the hole in it. If that doesnt work, drill the hole and tap a bolt into it, to stop the diesel running through.
The diesel may have to burn for maybe an houror more. Try it!

Too late! Zipcut made short work of the crank.
If anyone needs peripherals for the 216 let me know before I throw it out.
