I FINALLY got my engine in the boat today, I did some paint work also to get rid of the standard all black small block, I found a paint close to the merc. blue, I will post more pics when done.
Balnaced 350 shortblock with forged flat-top pistons 9.5:1 , GM performance ZZ9 cam, Dart200 heads, Edelbrock intake with 650 holley, should run good!!

Lookin good, your down hill from here.

Nice, you'll be havin fun shortly

Thanks, I hope to get it running before next week, I need to paint the drive and fit the drive shower now.
