My engine out of my totalled 91 is ready to go, i decided instead of speeding along and throwing it in, i was gonna take my time, redo what needed to be redone. It just so happens i got another car, which took the DD responsibility off of my 89 which the motor is going into. I thought i would share a few pictures to get some input on what you guys thought...

Here is the back of the engine. The oil pan block and heads was stripped down and painted. the block got rust encapsulated and painted black, heads and manifold got rebuilders cast. The intake manifold got gasket matched to the heads, and the inlet opening was opened up and matched to the plenum. The plenum has a satin black, polished aluminum accents around the base and the two back ridges.

I wanted it to follow the theme of the blower and the plenums, so i decided to polish both the front and center lips, and blast the back and inside with the satin black/clear combo. in the pic its is just the polishing.

This 94 blower took me over 20 hours between the porting/ cleaning/painting/ polishing. i dont have any pictures of the inlet side porting as of now, but here is the blowers paint job, polished/satin/clear
