LOL yeah that was my finger... That engine was filthy!!! But we cleaned it up and painted it so its purrty now. Yeah Frank needs to take some more pics.
The engine is running now and all we have to do is fix that leak in the tranny I think it is coming from the passenger side CV joint. Then bleed the clutch line and its done!!!

Purrty is a bit of an overstatement. That painted valve cover doesn't look very good imo. Maybe use the one off the old engine and try again. Do something a little less bland then that drab gray you chose

Just use the old valve cover and repaint it... and make sure you clean off all of the greese and oil spots before painting. Personally I'm gonig to go black with my valve cover when I get around to painting it... maybe when I do all the other work to my car two weeks from now.

Ok everyone I can finnally say ITS FINISHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yayyyy!!!!! Frank was so happy he tried to kiss me so I had to bust out the good old karate chop!!!! But the good news is he drove it home and I got my Header installed again so we worked our butts off and finished at about midnight last night and he drove the car home...
I would like to thank the "car gods" for blessing this project with success lol .... And a big thanks to the guy at the Belvoir Auto care center for letting us stay countless nights past duty hours to finish this projet.
