Just saying, you will regret it some day.

Rebuilding engines is fun. Rebuilding the rear subframe not so much. Got to get back at it now...

[sandlock]

Yea I had a small shop do the rear subframe busch-uns cause I didn't feel like taking that on. Worth every penny. Nice work on the engine, I'd love to do that to mine with some small upgrades. Maybe in a year or so.

After work hours calls for a boost.

Sanding complete.

Commence to cleaning and re-taping off block in a much more articulate fashion.

Painting is a go.

Did you O ring the head or the block? Wasnt sure if you was going to boost or not.

[TrentW]

Good choice on using the Goetze gasket. I've heard of issues w/Victor Reinz before.

You should definitely bring it to Vintagefest this year.
