so i started putting my block together a bit today. i still have to put another coat of paint on it tomorrow.
the pics make it looks kinda orange, but its really a nice red that almost matches my car exactly....
its got the new oil pump a newer water pump, and the pistons, rods, and crank installed...i still have to clean up the oil pan and put it on along with the crank sensor and a few other things...
i might end up taking the head in to get done in a few days, but im not sure yet
hopefully it will be runnin in a few weeks or so

oh that thing is beautiful.

 

noice. looks good man. keep updating us with more pictures!

 

finish it already!!!!!!

 

Looks good spud. How much did the new crank set you back and did you have it machine balanced?

 

looks good spud when will it be done.

 

honestly i have no idea when it will be done....hopefully soon...
i still need to get the head done and order my cam gears, valve spring retainers, head studs, screaming demon coil, msd plug wires, and a few other things before the motor can go in....

the crank was ground down, polished, and balanced......$310

 

X2!

I like the red paint.

 

that engine will look good in my black r/t, lol

but really its a nice lookin block. cant wait to see it in the car.

pics of the r/t will be up today........ finally!
