Hey all. I am not done getting it all buttoned up but I am whoring pics anyway. Nothing fancy yet. Just freshly polished parts going back on the block. I will snap off a few more once the new fuel lines get here and I get them on.



Enjoy.

I have th greddy water pump and alt pulleys. The main crank and power steering (not shown in photo) are both Unorthodox racing pullies. My rails are from Keith (KG PARTS) They were originally anodized blue but i thought it looked kinda lame so I polished them out. I am running push lock fittings and lines this time. I'll throw pics up next week once I get the lines in from Jegs. Thanks for the nice words.

Damn! Is that the same engine you built a couple of years back?



Personally I prefer paint. Because it takes a F load of time to make them look as bling as what you got there. Wrinkle black or wrinkle red paint!



Polished does look amazing though

Yea it's all my original engine aside from the irons. Those are new.

I like the paint too but I wouldn't paint the irons anymore because it started to peel off last time. So I just left them bare. These ones are brand new and look good anyway. Lucky me.

I did all of the polish work on the other parts a long time ago. I just re-buffed them before bolting them back on this time.



Thanks for the compliment.

Come on now. You know better. No I did not pull the motor to polish it.

I cracked an apex seal last summer.

It should make about the same power as it made last year. I did not change any parts. I dynoed 430hp last year with a broken motor. The sheet is in my signature.
