Can you actually save a junkyard LS?

I picked up a filthy junkyard LS engine and decided to see if it was actually worth saving. In previous episodes we tested it on a run stand. What started as a simple cleaning turned into a full rescue. I pressure washed it, cleaned it with oven cleaner and acid, welded out broken exhaust bolts, prepped everything properly, painted the block, and started assembling it back together. The goal was simple: take a nasty, neglected LS and turn it into something install-ready. But the real question is… did it actually survive the process? — This is part of my budget LS build series where we’re taking junkyard parts and turning them into something legit.
