is that wet or dry ?

thats dry as a bone....the pictures were taken the day after i sprayed it

thats also under flouresent lighting i'll have to push it out into the sun to bring the paint to life

how much was the gallon of paint?

for the paint enough reducer and hardener, the filters and stir sticks it was under $200 i believe, that was over a year ago though

I don't know about engine porn, but the car is undressed!!

PS., can you tell I LIKE blue cars!!!!!!!!

actually that paint is very forgiving lays down great, this is my first paint to.....

fritz if you want to know for sure pull off the oil pan....

i had it off.. just im new and didnt know what i was lookin for i already put grand new gaskets on everything and engine n trans in car now.. dammit lol i heard freeze valves could tell u, 2 on each side = 4 bolt? theres 6 on my car. prolly 6 on any engine. 2 in front 2 on side and 2 on other side.

when you had the pan off did the main bearing caps have two bolts or 4?

dont know, was first time ever messing with a engine it was earlier this year. ive learned alot within this year. but i didnt know any better to look when i had it off.. >.<
