NOPE-going with the Traditional "Old-School" crinkle black 426-look ! The Short block is built. I am guessing this week-the Heads will be finished and I'll be looking at a Completed Mill !

GOT absolutely LUCKY today... Picked up this Lakewood Bellhousing/NHRA (0.25" thick) CHROME-Plated Scattershield !!! S C O R E for $ 200.00 !!! I think this will go behind my HEMI, instead of my Aluminum one ! By the way-if anyone wants to buy the Aluminum Hemi-Bellhousing give me a call ! 253-230-0834

Heads go on for final Valve clearance checks today (09-24-08); then, the motor gets painted HEMI orange, then the Oil Pan and Dipstick tube and intake manifold go on as well as the TC cover, Chevy BB water pump and March Pulleys set. Will dyno the motor in a couple of weeks; then, take delivery for installation after that ! Bob does some of the best machine work I have seen in the NW. He's HONEST and DOES NOT work for free ! The old phrase, "you get WHAT you pay for" stands true! I am VERY satisfied with his help on my build! Good luck finding anyone around you who KNOWS how to rebuild an engine Correctly as well as bring 50 years racing history/builds with him ! Bob DOES ! If you want your HEMI built RIGHT-the first time-go here: http://seattle.craigslist.org/skc/pts/852227642.html
