love the new signature :wink:

DEF do the water pump blue.. and i wud even do the bolts blue to contrast off the chrome parts.. JMO.. LOOKS GREAT THO ...

Imma try it blue and see wassup. If I dont like it I can clean it offand leave it raw with clear. Imma eventually get the right nose cover and you wont see the bolts. The ones holding the waterpump will be some ARP's in SS..

looking really good man! that chrome came out good

Thanks bruh!!!

water pump blue for sure i have a power steering pulley installer if you need it thats how i did mine....i think your on the right track....i will say you got bigger nuts that me as i wont mess with the clutch on these a/c compressors...

Oh yes!! If you can swing by please bring it bruh. I was gonna just rent one on saturday along with the AC puller setup. After I watched this I felt a lil more comfy with doin it..

man the motor is looking great elco warren ... at first i thought that with so much chrome it would be to flashy but man does it actually look real mean ... and so clean you could eat off of it lol ... on suggestion you could do is pinstripe the ballmilled lines on the valvle covers the same blue as the block ... i think it would give it a nice subtle touch... great job!!

Yessir!! The ball milled areas on my valve covers, wire loom holders, pcv, breather and battery covers will get the blue pin striping after I get em all chromed. They are polished. I'll have to let a pro do that one tho. LOL! Ol Elco's hands just aint as steady as they used to be

Thanks for checkin back fellas! I know all these mods arent everyones style. But i really appreciate the feedback and suggestions Im getting from everyone. Thanks :!: Just woke up and ready to start on my "Tuesday Worklist" 😀

Ques up "All hail the Chief" Thanks bruh! Its cool for what it is. I think Im done after this next lil set of pics Im about to drop..LOL! Now this may not be for everybody..I cleaned and sprayed the wire looms a semi gloss high temp black. The faded and cracked looms were killing me. So I replaced a couple and clean/sprayed the rest.

Before

After..

My goal is to hide all the wires and looms as much as possible. So this probably wasnt even needed but oh well.

Dayside shots of the motor. I'll start the blue detailing tomorrow...

Got just about everything done that I wanted to do today. Time to head into work....Spraying the water pump after work and cleaning out the interior.... When I get up in the morn I'll start the header cleanup and spray...Header wrap is coming soon....

Thanks for checkin back..
