Paint job came out great! I really love this color.

I have a really cool (Well I think it’s cool) discontinued eke. water pump that should look pretty sweet on this engine!! Stay tuned!

I like the gray!

I usually paint everything orange, including the aluminum heads and water pump (555 shown in orange).

When I saw the 572 ready for the dyno with just the block orange I kind of liked it and decided to leave it. I'm heading in your direction, paint wise!

I don’t know how to spell a whistling sound but boy that is one sweet looking bbc.

I love the belt drive and that vac pump looks awesome on there!

You’ve even got a set of the “real” moroso cast aluminum valve covers. Very nice!

I really like how a race engine looks. Street Rods are cool but I love popping the hood and seeing a big sing plane intake belt drive crank trigger and vac pump all covered in AN braided lines. A big set of solenoids and a dominator is my preferred eye candy!!

I‘ve personally never been able to afford all that but boy I sure think it looks cool!:signs8:

Really cool looking engine thanks for posting the pictures.

No progress on this one either. Just more excuses! Lol but I hope to get back on it soon. The oldest boy and I are going to dig his 55 wagon out soon too so I’ll post those pics soon.
