Where is the C5 in your picture? All I see is a cast iron truck engine on a stand.

This is a photo of my old engine , (thrown rod) just prior to the complete new engine being installed at Libertyville Chev Speed Shop 11-12-10. This was a used Iron Truck block that no one including the dealer knew about. Prior owner traded it in with this high mile engine. No one caught it including me. I threw the rod at a low speed auto cross made all of 75 yards and it let loose.

Sorry I do not have a picture of the car next to the old engine. These were sent to me via the dealer.

Our GTG is at Twin Peaks tomorrow night in Plano... I should be able to get that shot. Getting "Brooke" to come out for a pic might be harder. Brooke is our usual cute little 21 yr old waitress...

Well.... I guess I met the challenge below, but the pic with the girls came out blurry. I had it on night shot, and they all suck....
I had the flash on too....

No bonus points for me huh ?

Oh well , i'm sure you can make out there outline.....



I got this one when we got there. Turned out ok with the little bit of light.





NEXT challenge...... Your car with Zaino (or other) polish still on the car before you remove it.
