Message	I FINALLY got my engine back from the machinist (who was rebuilding the bottom end and heads.) ARP rod bolts, bored .25 over, balanced crank. He said it'd take him 2 weeks but it ended up to be 5. He needed to sleeve one cylinder, after going onto a finish hone. :( But it's done and I'm happy. Now it'll go quickly as I put the accessories back on it. Here's one pic I snapped. Painted the exhaust covers black, the intake covers "Nightshadow" with some paint I got from Autozone, clear coated all of it with high temp clear coat. The timing belt covers, throttle cable cover, fan shroud will be that same color (Nightshadow). The color is more "brilliant" in person...as a matter of fact in the picture it looks pretty drab. Oh well. What do you think? -- Adam Check out my Z on Cardomain.com. Infact, support all the Zs there!
