At the end of december into the beginning of january i had to rebuild my engine. The oil pressure sending unit that screws into the side of the block, vibrated loose and allowed oil to leak out within a few miles still giving me a 40psi signal. so here i am in 20* weather pulling my motor. NOT FUN. |
Didnt belive me it was that cold out?? well check out the frost all over my car. This is devotion.

turns out that i spun the no.1 rod bearing so i had to get my crank turned. so out it came. |
Its amazing that alone all these parts are useless shapes. but put them together in the right order and it can produce a self-supporting engine that can propel a 3600lb mass thru the quarter in 14-15 seconds. if you ever wonder what it takes to do that, try pushing your car sometime. youll have a new found respect for your engines power.

Here is my valve covers. i used high heat black paint and hand painted the silver into the grooves.
