Got the block painted - lookin' good so far! Still need to clean out the oil/coolant ports due to the bead blasting to remove the previous rust that was on the block... (bead blast and powder coat completed by Sakura Motors in Pennsylvania).
Currently this is what I plan to do - this is tentative only because things change and well know this but here's "The List."
