Block was dropped off at the machine shop on Saturday. Costing $310 for boring, cleaning, and crank polishing. I know it's a little pricey, but the convenience of being open on Saturdays is worth the extra money, considering all other machine shops in Chicago close at 4/5, M-F. I would have to leave work early, which is retarded. Picking up this Saturday.

I'm hoping I can get it painted this weekend and throw it on my engine stand. Then will get to start building. For paint, I'm thinking an aluminum color because that just looks sexy. I know it shows dirt more, but I think it'll be ok.

My kitchen is a mess considering that's where I'm doing everything at. Was going to build in my shed, but moisture would cause problems. Engine stand in the corner, MSnS on a chair, parts and shit torn apart on the kitchen, door panels and brackets along the wall... it's a mess.

Also have another goodie that I will post pics up later.
