Default Post your engine pics!!!

I will be repainting my engine later this year if all goes well and I've got a few ideas but there aren't many engine picture threads on the forum. I think engines are beautiful pieces of machinery and I know there's people on the forum who have some really unique stuff. So go ahead and show off those powerplants!
