Yep, cleaning those parts was the hardest and most important job. :butthead:

Did you guys get the cage painted yet? I have plenty flat black and semi-gloss black I can bring over tomorrow if you need it.

Having a good parts cleaner person is awesome isnt it!!! Honestly though it is the most important and time consuming job when building a engine it just sucks to do

clean parts is key!!!!!!!! becouse every thing has to be right, to work right.

thanks again , klimb2xs for the great job

yea....i'll take you up on the paint! but the last 2 bars are not in the car yet...its a long story, but to make it short I launched the snake off the 2-step in front of the neighbors house sunday, needless to say it caused some problems, so we did not want to make anymore noise that night.

I'm trying to behave now.
