bottom end finished--next......

finished putting the bottom end of the Euro (4.5L) together tonight w/parts from Roger at Austin GTG (thanks Roger).

then mocked up the rest with the ported Euro heads and e-coated cam towers from Dave Lomas @ Motorsports SLC (thanks Dave). just could not resist......







this only a temporary thing, to have a motor in the car while the body/paint work gets under way, and until the stroker gets built.

should be a lot of fun--freshened 4.5L short block with Euro top end, ported heads, Euro cams, etc.....

Thanks Russ! Yup, good thing it's just a project and not something I "need" to get done in a specified timeframe.
