Keith your BB looks great man. I'm thinking I might change to a few more stainless / billet bolts here and there, a billet water neck, VA cover, distributor hold down clamp, possibly more when I can. Question - I noticed you have what appears to be a Billet Specialties water neck on yours .. is that the 45 deg version or the 15 deg?

I used to have black head bolts (ARP) until I had to pull the engine for rebuild. When we got it back the heads were already on, valves adjusted, etc. So we just had to paint over the bolts. I like the look of fresh clean, new bolts it just adds detail.

.. just getting through Christmas and several big purchases back to back. My wheels, tires, buckets and console, and an engine rebuild in about 90 days. I'm about tapped out in the fun money dept for a few weeks
