Not sure about the paint... That is how it came from the engine builder, he did a super nice job, everithin was washed in an ultrasonic bath and assembled with new water jacket and oil galley plugs.
Wish i had the $$ to send him my spare head too, that will be my next **** session LOL

Te car is back together after an all nighter, the only issue i had was to get the oil pump primed, i ended up removing the oil galley plug at the pump and filling it with oil with a siringe, that did the trick and it build pressure right away after that.
Car is running great so i plan on putting a few miles and going back to the dyno for a re tune after insalling a new intake cam with all this work.

The sender has worked well there, is out of the way but below the oil level. I have been thinking to change out the gauge in the future for one that has a 0-5v output for the MS3 but am not sure if the larger sender will clear the front subframe

The car was tunned by Scott from DYI last month, it makes 337 hp @ 19 psi
I ended up using a manual boost controller with a **** in the dash so i can change boost without having to plug the laptop and i really like how that is working here is a data log for 15 psi

Took the car to the drag strip to see what it will do and found it difficult to get a desent run, wheel hop on first and second gears and missed 4 to 5 th gear changes so my best run was a 13.1 (the first run on the video and MS log) still was a lot of fun
