I have been lazy about adding to this. Engine is in car, running well, etc. I don't have many pictures of installation, but this one shows the oil thermostat that I decided to add. A bit of a pain, would have been easier to do with barbed fittings, but I was keen on 'doing it right'.

I bought a new rocker shaft and had the arms rebuilt with new bushings and the valve ends refaced. In the photo you can see the mat'l removed for balancing the flywheel. I lightened the flywheel myself a few years ago and had a bit more taken off this time along with the balancing. I forget the weight, I'll post when I look it up.

Slightly out of order, I did these while waiting for the block ass'y. Took all apart except for the throttle plates since the shafts were not loose. Cleaned everything at home and took to work to put in the ultrasonic. Amazing how much more dirt came off even though they were pretty well cleaned. Don't seem to have the parts pics on this computer, but here they are back together and mounted.

I picked up the assembled shortblock. It sat in my office until the snow cleared this spring ('11) to get it into my basement. Took a bit of effort to get surface rust off it and painted.
