During the course of the weekend.
I made a suggestion to Robert. I said your LT5 looks like chopped liver compared to mine. Of course he shot me the middle finger and said FU lol! But that if he is willing to spend $600 to get it powder coated that I would be willing to do all of the break down and assembly work on it. And that he would not regret it.
His. Mine. Sometimes honesty is the best policy. |

Re: During the course of the weekend.
Your engine looks great, something to strive for with my 94 when time and $$$ will allow.....

Re: During the course of the weekend.
Great of you to offer, even if he did a cheap spray can job it would look much better.

Re: During the course of the weekend.
It's almost impossible to get the valve covers out without removing the engine. Otherwise I would definitely at least spray paint my parts.

Remove master cylinder and booster (w/o disconnecting lines), casing around heater/AC stuff on passenger side and move AC compressor (w/o disconnecting hoses) out of the way. Leaves lots of room to pull cam covers. Hardest part was disconnecting brake pedal under the dash. That's where TomTom came in handy! He's a little more flexible then I am.... |
