Just wait for tonight's pictures. The FEAD side (front) motor mount was painted with 500+ degree engine enamel. I love the stuff, so I'm going to paint the timing cover and both valve covers as well ... all silver (aluminum). She is going to sparkle
As of right now, I'm waiting on a new SVT flywheel to arrive. So, until then I need to clean out the LIM & paint it, paint and install the valve covers, timing cover & oil pan. Once all the painted parts are installed, I plan on masking the block and painting it as well. However, I don't want to put masking tape/paper on still curing paint, so the block detailing will not be done until tomorrow night.
I also forgot to get a closeup of the installed stud nuts, so I will add that to tonight's list as well.
