Hey guys, right now I am about to finish my brake swap. I know im lazy but i have plenty of time. I just have to do all of the lines and bleeding. I plan on using those russel speed bleeders so i dont have to bench bleed the MC. Next week i will be getting the exhaust kit from summit and starting that. Once the exhaust is in, i will start the engine up and tune it. I hated starting the car up with open headers.
I get my license on JULY 15! During the summer i will be bringing in alot more money too.

Oh yeah, I have my 302 shortblock sitting here if i need a new engine, but like soaring says, "if it aint broke then dont fix it" So i am gonna drive the 289 til it dies.

First night of owner ship

you have cleaned that engine compartment up quite well. I need to start on that, but my front seal is slinging oil everywhere, and it is pointless at the moment. i do have a chrome air cleaner though....... lol

 

Thanks, You would be amazed at what some paint can do.

 

did you repaint the compartment??? Actually my compartment pain looks GREAT! it's just everything is covered in oil now.[:@]

 

looking good

 

We just put another coat on the bay, and did some touch up on the engine. But the water pump, manifold, carb, valve covers, air filter, wires, etc have been changed too.

 

yeah, i noticed the engine changes. i want to get some new wires, and those billet wire holders you posted on the other post. They look AWESOME!!!

 

tyler did you pull your engine to paint all that comparment stuff???
