This is my first complete engine overhaul. I've p pumped a 24v and cam swaps and a few other things but I've never been in the bottom end before and I've never worked on a VE. It would be a piece of cake if I had taken it apart but I got the engine in pieces all the bolts in a bucket and so on. It needed new piston rings so I got a complete gasket kit, rings, and bearings. Here are i few gaskets, o rings and such that I don't know where they belong. If someone could help me identify them that'd be GREAT.

I'm assuming you don't have a service manual of any kind. Scary.

Make sure to use the 3/8" impact on the lower end and the 2/2" impact on the head. You will be good to go.
