Well I spent most of the day running around looking for a good exhaust shop and junk yard shopping for an AC line that I need. But I did do a little more work on the block. I am shooting for a Wednesday start up but we'll see how things go. I took some more pictures so you guys can see the progress.
I had already started working and forgot that I was going to take pictures so I installed the oil pump windage tray and rear main seal at this point.
Upper shot of the windage and oil pick up. I spent a good amount of time trying to clean up the windage tray. I got most of the oil off of it but I think it's good enough.
I had to try and repair the damage to the deck surface
My friend had a little fun with the camera so I ended up with about 10 pictures of this
Another top shot of the engine, can't really see the repair.
The best shot I could get of the worst spot on the block. Notice how nice the cross hatch looks in the cylinders.
And the last shot before I put it away for the night
