Default Garage Action Shot #8

Closer - still closer to finished. I found out today my old painted valve covers will not fit. It was off the the SummitRacing gods to get some, like Drudis' except silver.

If anyone notices any glaring mistakes, speak up. God knows I have redone stuff hundreds of times already.



If you look close you can see the #1 cylinder is at TDC.

That is a sweet looking motor. I attached a pic of my motor in my 89GT, 351 Windsor with big headers, and carb look sweet too.

Default Nice

Nice Picture POISONUS.

My engine now looks a little more junky with the accessories on it. I may take them back off and paint them too

Mare free paint into the car will be difficult. It will be only me and the other two stooges, James and Rick, versus the car that day.
