My first muscle car build thread (lots of pics)

Finished cleaning all the pistons!! I got better at using the broken ring and started doing them faster. probably 10 hours spent cleaning the pistons. I am very thankful the garage has a music and a tv. I also got some chrysler blue paint for it, and the other day I got some zinc additive.

Paint $18
Zinc additive $10


new total: $426.20

Still need freeze plugs and maybe another 2 cans of brake cleaner. looks like the build total should be under $500 bucks. Very cool.

Hopefully I can bust my *** and get the shortblock assembled and start taking the old engine out this weekend.
