You know... No worries about trying to re-install the heads while the engine is in the car... because, today when I visited the car after it arrived at the new mechanic, I opened the hood and saw...


THE ENGINE IS THE WRONG F@!*#@!*ING COLOR!!!

AHHHHHH...


I bought the car with 1977 Pontiac Blue on the engine. I specifically had the engine pulled about 9 months ago JUST to paint the engine proper late 60's Pontiac blue, detail the compartment, etc.

Rebuild #1 happens with jerk mechanic - engine is painted appropriately.
Rebuild #2 jerk mechanic paints engine wrong [censored] color?!@!?? Are you kidding me?!?!
Rebuild #2 was block & rotating assembly... but I saw that he never sent out my water pump cover...
So even if the process discolored the engine block...
don't you think someone would freakin' notice that the color you're painting the engine doesn't match the correct color you painted the water pump cover a month ago!?!?!?




Wow. My mind is blown.




While we're at it... The new cam is crazy mild. Any recommendations on stepping it up a little bit??
