A lot of great progress, looks great. I'm jealous! I'm hoping for some dryer weather here this weekend to spray some paint also.

Your progress looks great! Be careful when you drive it for the first time. Those painted rotors will make your brakes grab for a while.

idk if im gonna put the big block in there after all since for me to do that i would have to buy some parts for the big block and the amount of money was adding up quick i may just go with the same engine but paint iyt really nice before i drop it back in there.... it has less than 10k miles on it so is a good engine....

54Caddy · 01-16-2013, 10:37 PM

What you need for the big block?
