2 bolt block
this is how far I've gotten on my 2 bolt 010/020(high nickle,tin and chromium) casting 350.
http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/2849/aug130001.jpg pulled it outta the Buick, full tear down and rebuild the motor mounts and balencer are getting changed so I didn't really give a damn bout over spray |
looks good bubba i cant wait to see and hear the engine running
|
just waiting for my lifters to come
|
Do I see paint on the valvesprings, in the exhaust ports and in... well... every open hole on that engine?

bubba fails again |
nah...there's none on the springs I sprayed it with the spark plugs in so just the taper is painted. the exhaust ports and the water pump jackets did get over spray but that ain't gonna hurt anything. the mounting surfaces will all be cleaned up with a cookie before anything else is bolted on. its just a cell pic, I'll put up a better one sometime when I have time
|
You missed the whole center part though? Is that going to be red? For like a two tone job?
|
WHAT!!!!!!! you mean the machined surface where the intake manifold mounts? that going to be natural aluminum finish....the timing cover is going to be chrome as well as the valve covers.
|
Are you going to paint the things on top of the head too?
|
i know you aint that dumb
|
:mrgreen:
But if you paint them like pink, it would really bring the art work together... :rofl: |
just for you...i'll paint my rockers pink

cookie like this? |

Bad!
Gonna make a wavy ass surface... but hell the rest of the engine is coated in overspray. |
no...that doesn't remove metal, just paint and whatever else is on there. i've always used a cookie wheel and never had issues
|
Ok. You know all.
|
you have no idea
|
You can use roloc discs on cast iron. And they make them in different grits. So for once I'm gonna agree with him.
|
Really?
I thought any circular cleaning would create un even surfaces... idk, its not recommended in anything I have read. |
I've never had any issues. You have to be careful, of course. I would not use it on aluminum.
