I've been thinking about the missing thermostat and wondering if there was some sort of cooling system over-temperature issue that caused it to be removed in the first place..? Do you know anything about the history of the set before it came into your hands..? It may be a good idea to go over the cooling system with a fine-tooth comb looking for problems while the engine is disassembled.
Another thought - I hope they are planning to pull the pistons and replace the rings, because I'd guess that the piston ring grooves are going to be full of carbon as well.
