Got the motor disassembled. Bearings were crap! Getting rid of the front balance shaft and grinding down the rear.

Head looked great :)

Yup.. MY garage :D

Brendan made fun of me that it won't run for another 3 months :(
I just ordered in some SS brake lines, prothane motor mounts, clear cam gear cover, ACL rod/ crank bearings and a fire-retardant jacket :)

Other then that, think I just need a few sensors (knock/ O2)

I'd really like to pick up the MOMO steering wheel, but omg, 200 + 75 for the hub adapter.. Trying to bring myself to spend that much

This thread wouldn't be 4 pages if you had a penis. Looks like fun though

Do you know someone who powdercoats? Any idea how they made your Valve Cover that color? I'm curious because I do coating in my garage for fun, and wondering how they did it. I ended up doing a gloss black base coat, then I put a coat of transparent red on top of that. That's how I got mine to match my car the best I could. Here's how mine turned out. With minimal light it looks like a gloss black, but when light hits is you can see the red. Car looks good though! You should throw a Maaco paint job on that, the paint looks pretty sad.

^ That turned out really well too.. It's def really hard to tell what it really looks like without seeing it in person
He did a black tint as a clear over aluminum (or maybe it was chrome) :)

But I would never get a maaco paint job. Trash!! I have a guy that does all my work.. just trying to get the engine in sort before spending money on the looks

I love it when people call my paint job trash! They do a nice black cherry actually! Paint still looks good to this day. Just don't get their cheapest paint job.
