No pics this update, but bottom end is completed. and Engine mounts are on. Opted for those new lightweight UMI pieces.

Thinking of POR15ing the block just to make it look nicer, any opinions?

Opinions on making it look nicer? Why wouldn't you want it to look nicer? Do it.

Plus the TB is going to further cover that area.

I figured you were going to paint the block all fancy colors

Thought about doing the same thing as i did to the LS6 with the fast, but opted against. The fast is very very "wrinkley" so tape lines would be a night mare.

Read somewhere that water transfer design options extend beyond Affliction graphics.

Just hit up KB Motorsports to see what it would cost
