It might be a great color for it. I will make my choice once there but this one is in my book.

I left the pistons at my machinist, until 2 weeks the rebore should be done so I will go further.

Often the hardest part is rounding up all the necessary parts. Looks like you got past that step. The rest should be easy.

You're right ahah. I've got 2 broken oil squirters, I am happy to have Tom helping me out with these specific parts I need !

Took pictures at the machine shop few weeks ago. The block is ready at the time I am writing this, I will pick it up next week.

Block is back in my garage . Cleaned it before painting. I am not 100% sure of the color, but more likely a ''beige'' cummins.

Happy holidays and new year to you all!

I could not wait to paint it so I choose a light green ''Detroit'' diesel engine color. Did the engine stand also
