I forgot to get a picture of it, but I did clean up the casting flash on the oil filter mount. There were 2 spots that were really bad, they had to of reduced the flow by 50%, I swear. Right now I have the mount attached to the timing cover, but it'll be coming back off right before the engine goes in. I put it on to see what it looked like, and not loose the bolts\gasket\mount itself. Bolts aren't torqued, so it'll come right out. My little workshop isn't all that big, and there's damn near 2 engine in pieces laying around here.
All that's left for now:
Clean intake side of heads
Wipe\blow everything off one last time then pour oil all over everything inside the engine, a cap full in each cylinder, then drain the oil pan.
Finish intake - wait for JB weld to set up a few more days, then finish up cleaning it, sand JB weld, plug coolant holes, and grind the coolant passage at the end.
Install Intake
Paint\install valve covers - old front cover is still soaking, gaskets are ordered
Finish cleaning and possibly paint supercharger
Finish cleaning engine bay - about 70% done as it sits, I also need a new motor mount.
---Drop the engine back in it's home---
Install supercharger
Drill\tap throttle body
Various other small things
I hoping to have it in during the next week or 2, I'm also doing the DIY shift kit to my transmission while flushing it at the same time. After this whole project, I still have to do the 12 inch brake upgrade, struts, the list goes on.
