The head has duck tape around it. Strange? I taped it
off so I can degrease,
high pressure water hose, and then paint the engine black.
The view is of the
flywheel being mounted onto the back of the engine. A
new rear main seal has
been installed. (04/2006)

Finally, the engine mounted to the transmission. Please
note the black paint on
the block is a nice touch. (04/2006)
Below:
Another picture of the engine with the transmission
mounted. Also, note that the
transmission was degreased and cleaned. The Valve cover
will later on be sandblasted
and then polished. (04/2006)
Above:
A front shot of the engine with the toothed cam and sensor.
This allows
the Microtech computer to properly guage the engine position.

Below:
A side view of the engine. Please note that the
oil filter assembly will later
be replaced by one that has an external cooling line.
