Default My new engine went in today, w/pics

Finally got it together, and installed. It is a mostly stock rebuild... Thanks to my friends Burt, Sara, and Pat, we got it installed right before it started raining. I just have to put in the fuel, oil, steering, and cooling systems. And finish the interior.. all before Norwalk! A quick thanks before the more detailed one later for all the guys on PY that have helped me through this, you know who you are, and I will call you all out later.

That is a great looking engine Sarge. I had to look twice as I thought it was a basic stock rebuild and then I noticed the E-heads.

Let us know how it runs.

Must be going for the stealth look with the painted intake and heads. Very nice indeed.

I'm hoping that's an RPM and not a plain Performer??

When I flowed one on E heads it really cut their flow down alot.

Nice !!!! To further the stealth look Grind off the Edelbrock logos, get creative with some JB Weld, add some spots of bronze paint near exhaust ports and a few bolts for that rusted iron look!
