Got my motor back

Got my motor back form the machine shop the other day. It looks pretty good. Unfortunately, it will be a week or so before I can even start putting it together. I have to clean my disgusting garage and reinforce my shock towers. Also need to replace a fuel line and may even do all new gauges. I hope to have it back up and running before Christmas. In fact, I plan on driving it to my moms for Christmas Eve dinner.

Here is what the build will be this time:

.040 over stock block
4-bolt conversion
Forged small journal Crower crank
Eagle H-beam rods
JE pistons-8.4:1 compression
Sticking with KB cam for now
All new lifters
Crane gold 1.6 rockers
O-ringed Ported Vortec heads with 2.02/1.60's
987 springs (I think)
SCE Titan copper head gaskets
ARP head studs
Ported upper and lower
Stock exhaust manifolds
PT67GTQ
ITS external WG
3" Exhaust

This time I am hoping for some longevity. If I fail, I am going back to a stockish type motor with the 20g.

Here are a couple pics I took

What's with the shock towers? They cracked or something?

And those pics remind me I need to get a rear main seal still thanks. Lol

Re: Got my motor back

Not at all. I completed all of the welds in those areas all around the suspension part of the frame and thought I'd go ahead and reinforce the shock towers. This is all being done for the coil overs. Still may box the frame in as well but not sure yet. I think having complete welds will do just fine.
