Default Re: The Downside of Day 2: Polished Original Parts

Jason, as much as I hate to say this, some of the GM stuff was "Over the Counter" and out the side door of the casting house. ie. Lost in production. Lol. But at that point in time, it was kinda like polishing up a set of heads off an LS motor today. To each his own I guess?

All, kidding aside, it is sad to see all of the rough cast gone on a lot of factory parts you have pictures of. A little blasting would bring some of it back, but not all the good stuff.

Well here is my offering for this page. I have an original 3946052 ZL-1 block. Was smoothed and polished up.

It may not be to some but I like all those polished parts. The heads and block are really cool.
