Engine is finally all painted. I went with a grey rocker cover. The oil pan is black. I will need to punch out the front frost plug and replace it with a new one. The two on the side had pin holes when I started poking around with a screw driver.
Next up for painting is the timing gear cover then installing a new seal. I also removed the large pulley harmonic balancer from the wartime engine and will be putting it on this one. That way all the pulleys are matching.
My plan for later in the week is to get most everything back onto the engine. Although it always seems to take twice as long. So we will see what happens.
