Does that paint stay one pretty good? I wanted to paint the inside of mine, but was concerned that it would come off and clod up oil pick up or mess up oil pump. What about out side? Just paint or primer first? Brian

Scott's hoping for 700+ HP. I really don't know what to expect and am trying to remain realistic.
The paint was Rustoleum rust metal primer and it's purpose is to speed up oil return as well as seal the metal and seal in any residule casting sand that may still be there.
Car weighs 2820 W/o me and 2960 on the line. Might be a little less now with some parts on this build being lighter than what I was running.
Wild bIll, 1st you should of painted the inside Blue!
2nd,your telling me you weigh 140 lbs. Jesus, i weighed that as a freshman in High School.

No I hit the wrong dam key. I weigh around 160 so it should read 2980
I'm sure the paint will hold up fine inside the block.

Are you going to also put paint on the inside, or leave it primer?
I'm sure I'll find out next Thur when I can get back out there
I did pick up the paint for the outside of the block though

Most of last years motor is not being used. We are using the block and forged crank that I had in my garage.
It is a factory forged crank though so no stroker.
Pistons are from Weisco's Pro Tru line and the rods are K1 H beams. My old motor had Hyper pistons and LY rods W/ a cast crank.

Flat tops
The plan was to use to use my 555 solid flat tapet cam.
Then again not much of the original plan is holding true so
