Project Black Betty

Yeah needs more cleaning ,painting,and organizing! But I need to pull the engine again to paint the block. I pulled it out once to replace the piston rings,timing chain....didn't have the time to paint...long story.... But I'll paint it when I am ready to pu the turbo on since I need to put a oil return line in the pan and i rather do that with the pan off!

I'm planning on getting a 8.25 rearend off a 73'-up dart. I recently located a junk yard that has cars 80s and older only,so i hope they have what i need. My next project in the engine bay is to do a HEI conversion and recurve mod.
