Almost forgot to mention my main feed fuel lines, HVAC control and Jeep shaft showed up today so it should be a productive week and weekend. Special shout out to RITTER for the pay it forward HVAC.

It May be crazy but I'm really thinking about painting the block and heads either Buick red or a dark gray (ford) yes yes I know it a sbc but I want to contrast between the satin and gloss black. The only contrasting colors I have already are the alum radiator, Intake, valve covers and air cleaner. I'm leaner closer to the red to me honest but all ideas are welcome.

Thanks bruh, its labor intensive but man the end results gonna make me happy like a kid in a candy store. I can't wait to finish this one so I can go crazy hard on the Hurst. Maybe my coworker will let me use his sandblaster to remove the satin black from my accessories so I can paint em up in gloss black to match my tuff stuff alt. I think the red block and heads will break up the black and silver pretty good. I think I have a color scheme fellas.

Aw man thanks but the only reason this one is going quick is because my Hurst build I was doing for a daily driver changed and now I wanna do a frame off lol. And the powertrain is coming from my first car build that I'm nearly tired of and just overall disappointed in. To top that off I :wink: 'm using parts from my long build that was in the infant stages before my cousin crashed it so its really not all that quick man don't drool or feel bad. :wink:

I was lil bored and decided to mock up my lower door panels from gbodyparts.com, after washing and preppie them for what seemed like six days all I could do was get the Primer coats on before my GF came home. Tomorrow I should be able to get a top coat on em and prep the other parts before I'm made to stop again.
