Brian, I have a funny feeling that if I went with that color most on here would think I wasn't feeling well

I did consider it for a half second though


What's the plan with that thing? What's going in it?

Oh, and Mike, at least you got the core plug color right

Looks good guys and I hope all goes well for you to get racing this season What is the purpose of the primer on the inside of the block? I have heard that painting it would make the oil flow back better but not priming it. Thanks. Greg


416 stroker from Nick at Compu-flow. 11.14 in full street trim. Seems like a new best every time out.
11.06 open headers----so far!!

I'm not sure it makes a difference in weather you use paint or primer. Just off the top of my head I woud think primer would hold/bond to the metal better but

Aside from helping oil back to the bottom, it helps seal the block and will trap any left over casting sand that might have been missed during the debur.

You would be amazed at how much sand I removed from my block both inside and out
