Default S4 PROJECT REBUILD

Hello S4 guys, I bought a 2000 S4 2.7t imola yellow.
Got it cheap, a shop was gonna part it out, started dismantling the interior, and the timing belt had broken.

The mission:
1)put the interior back together( pile of cluster, steering wheel, stereo, glove box, dome lights, etc...all sitting in back seat)

2) fix the motor:
replace valves, lifters, timing belt, water pump (possibly pistons)

This thread is going to be my reference/journal of each and every step i take. With every picture I take(for reassembly reference)

Default First day checking under the hood

I work at a shop so the car is in our wreck lot.
I came in 30 mins early to take some pics of where everything is and put the engine covers in the back seat. throttle body was already removed so I brought that in to clean it ( had to do something today)
open up the air box too and tossed the air filter

Mind sharing what a cheap price was, I was also looking at getting an 01.5 6spd with 100k on the odo and a timing belt break for $4.5 which seemed very high for the damage?
