ok so im 48 yrs old.. been building engines since 81.. ive probably built 12-15 over the years..

I have put more time into detail work on just the top end of this emgine than I have in all my other engines combined.. normally its gets the fast black paint then it goes in lol.

I sure hope he likes it and offer to toss a few extra green my way for the time spent lol.. :rock:

OHH dont forget to break out the glasses before u scroll down lol


you seen the VC so here is the intake.. not the green I wanted but it works.

Image

and here is the head.

Image

here it is PRE details on VC.

Image


and here are the completed/cleared pieces ready for assymbly once the block is painted.

It might be just me but I thought it looked pretty cool without the Black lettering. It reminded me of cheap chinese toys or something. great stuff either way.

Hopefully you'll be schooling people with that motor because those colors take me back to kindergarten. :stickman:

Agreed. Paint back over the black "detailing" and I think it looks neat if nothing else.

small update.. got the correct rings finally after 3 tries... STAY AWAY from the evo 8 pistons they use a super small oil ring and are hard to come by. anyways got the botom end together.. sat the head and some other parts on it for the pics.. will have it completed in the next few days.

first off.. I bought this tapered ring compressor... got to say.. its 1 of the top 5 best tools I have ever bought in my whole life the pistons just slid right in with no resistance at all.

Image

here is the pistons in. need to touch up the block where I missed some paint lol

Image

Image

and here is basically how it will look in the car.. still gotta paint the water pipe and motor mounts and all brackets still.
