H/C/I Project Underway!!
Hello Crew!
I just started my H/C/I today...and YES...I will be repainting the engine interior during this project
Here is the before:
Since the first half of my day was finishing the rear control arms...all I got to do was pull the hood, radiator, battery, air intake, belt and radiator hoses...
I got that thing at TDC too!
Hopefully Tommorow I will get everything out so I can paint on Tuesday...
Any tips??

lol...thanks for the advice...and sorry!
I am trying to stay as organized as possible. I bought 80 zip-lock bags...and 100 sticky paper labels. I have been labeling everything! I am just nervous that my kids are going to go out there and start throwing things around
