Here's one of the best investments I ever made bowtieorbust. I never had pistons go in so slick in my life.

Here's the finished short block assembled with stock fasteners.

Sorry for all the links but for some reason I can't get the pictures to show up by doing a copy/paste in the IMG box.

It has been a lot of years since I put together an engine and I learned a lot about what is available today in the process. I just hope I got the combo right for a nice running mild performance engine for my truck.

My next engine project for the '59 Vette is going to be much more high performance and I won't use any fasteners over. But I intend it to live through some open track days and I'd love to take it out to Utah and get it salty. That new vintage class looks very interesting.
