Painting: Round 1

Just wanted to post a pic of the engine prior to painting. It will be painted black, well, except for the chrome stuff.

Here is surgery being performed on the 700R4 tranny that I got the other day. It was used, so we had to open it up to make sure no gears were in the oil pan. That would have not been a good sign...


This is a picture after we finished assembling some of the engine. If you look close enough, you can see the crack that I put in the head...
Anyway, its an easy fix according to the shop guy, so we should have it put back together soon.
