Motor on motor stand pics

[WeezyRT]

Guys with your nice, new, pretty looking motors sitting on stands waiting to go in...post up some pics. Mainly looking for two people to post. I saw them in other posts, but now cant seem to find them now. One had a nice all black theme going on and the other was in an avatar...aluminum or painted silver heads. Any and everybody else is encouraged to post theirs as well. :biggthumpup:

[Jamie Black R/T]

cool, you know they're going to turn all dull and discolor the 1st time you start it, right ? I see you point about the contrast though. I did a similar thing with black and silver in my engine bay.

[Jamie Black R/T]

this is the motors second season running actually...heads still look good

i know what you mean though...they lost that initial lustre

not that you can really see the fuckin things anyway :jester:

How did you get the alternator to fit with those valve covers ?

[Trueblue R/T]

How did you get the alternator to fit with those valve covers ?

On the passenger side cover I notched it to clear the alternator,,then took a piece of 1" aliminum tubeing cut it in half so i had a half circle that would cover the hole and leave the necessary clearance..Then just miged the piece in place..

I figured you either notched it, or made a new alt. bracket. I love those VCs, good show :biggthumpup:

[LITNGETR]

[slvr03dakrt]

I NEED A ADDRESS OF WHERE YOU LIVE, BECUASE I THINK UPS SENT YOU MY MOTOR....

Sorry, you must have me confused with someone else, I picked up my motor myself :nana:

[RagingRedR/T]

I suppose you could call it a "magnum block" because it originally had magnum heads on it.

Now thats pretty slick I can say thats the first time i've seen la heads on a magnum

Thanks:D I like being different sometimes.

This was an experiment. Everyone has gone with 408's of different kinds, and I liked the idea but decided to run LA style heads. We'll see if the different parts gained me any more hp when I get it on the dyno later this summer.

Interesting...I wanna get my hands on a Mopar short block 360...

I am with you on this, and if I ever get enough money thrown together to afford a R3 block it would probably have a ported/polished indy heads/ intake on it.

Same here!! My current/future build would be a Mopar 360 block (they're .030 over) with some ported & polished Eddys, my 4bbl M1 and my 52mm TB, maybe even a 4bbl tb or accel 3bbl. All NA...:biggthumpup:

I have PPH headers laying my room, then a nice x-pipe true dual (I guess 3" TD) with spintechs...sweetness.
