Short block is done. Block is decked and 90 degrees to the pistons. Crank shaft is polished. All internals are balanced and blue printed. Block has also been repainted black.








Here is a quick video of the car before it shipped out to the states. You have to love the front license plate rattling. The shipping plates didnt rattle and they are the same size as the state license plates so that is good.
