Default more stuff, yay!

Well for the pastmonth i've been working my *** off so i could finally get the shortblock done, and now it is! It's a 4.3L with 8.7:1 compression and needs some big ported heads, which is next on the list of parts to order. Anyways, here's some pics.

Currently tracking IP address for future trip to New Braunfels, to save money on engine build...

I thought the girdle went all the way to the front?

IS the block painted or did you get any kind of specialty coating? It looks like a real clean job.
