Small update of what I have been doing today. After careful relocation and elimination of a few things this is what Im left with. Im going to spot in some new 3E5 paint along with some jamb clear and she should look great. Might throw in a twist while Im at it but that is for later. Also posted a pic of one of the new toys.

Since I am now stroker the 3S bolts obviously wont work :shoots: :shoots: So pissed at myslef right now. Oh well ordered them and they will be here tuesday. But here is what I have been doing along with some new toys. Also posted a little better pics of the motor.

It's base coat clear coat, and I just used can etch primer then sealed it with a regular sealer. Paint is aquacolor, it's a water base paint. Then cleared with ppg.

Your engine bay clean up looks great! I too am going to remove the battery tray area and clean that up. Very nice!

Thanks guys, there's already a few things I wish I would have done different but I'm sure that feeling would have been present no matter how it was done.
