Re: Project Build Log: Ol Green
Well, finally got the engine clean and sanded down. drum roll please...
I have a chevy orange engine. I got it done and it looks feaking sweet.
And then I go impatient and had to see what it looked like with the valve covers on. For the first time in my life, i have something in my engine compartment that can be smudged with finger prints. And once the valve covers were on, I had to see what the new water pump looked like mounted. So I threaded them on enough so the water pump wouldn't touch the engine. I wanted to put the oil pan on, but figured I should wait till the paint cures.
Final picture. Whats the best way of cleaing all of those lines. If I switch from the old brake fluid to the silocone do I need to switch the lines? I really should get a small parts cleaner.
Pick up the frame on Saturday and will start mounting drive train and lines. My goal is to have it back to the body man in two weeks. Spring is coming and I need to get this thing on the road
