I made a little bit of progress yesterday, I didn’t get anything done on Tuesday and not as much as I wanted on Wednesday because I was exhausted from the heat on Monday and I think the paint fumes got to me :-(

I got the engine painted ford blue on Monday night, and I started re-assembling it on Wednesday. The engine is one of my previous engine builds, bored over with KS pistons, cylinder head rebuilt by Aluminum Head Rebuilders in Oregon, ARP headstuds, and all new bearings. It runs nice!

The blue really “pops” I’m thinking it would look really good with the valve cover painted to match the block, maybe the timing cover too. Lately I have been painting the blocks to match the cars there going in, not my standard Detroit green. I went with blue because the wagon has blue interior.
