The block is a nos short block I acquired and I described in an earlier post that I had my machine shop go through it and did a real blueprint and balance.
Trial fit of NOS aluminum intake. It had rough broach marks on one side so I had it machined. 10 thousand for a better fit.  I wanted to preserve the assembly line markings so on the left side I sprayed in Matt clear before applying Olds Blue.  I find the best way to get a nice coat of Olds blue is to apply GM corporate blue as its non metallic. After that usually two coats of Olds blue does the job. I preserves some of the brown paint daubs that were inspection marks.   The engine assembly has the rolling NOS parts. Short block Oil pan Oil baffle Ring gear Timing cover Timing marker Water pump All head internals Lifters Internal oil baffle Aluminum intake Heat stove Engine hook More to come.
