Re: Got some engine pics! (cardo0)
Thanks for the comments guys, it took alot of time, money and polishing and its all worth it! :)
to answer your questions
Jvette, the breather is coming along...i have to do a few mods to get it working then i'm gonig to get the base chromed
vssii58, i panted the motor with red engine enamel...i was going to use urethane, but couldn't get it in time...my friend painted his urethane, and we didn't really see a difference.
cardo, the thermo housing is an AutoZone special :lol: easy to find.

Had to go to my truck to get my to see that engine without blinding myself. Looks great!
Me too Sure is shiny. Hope you don't go to cruise shows during the day. You could blind someone .
Looks really nice.
