Got a couple more little things done today while the paint on the block cures competely.
The transmission crossmember was re-installed into the frame. Amazingly, it went back in a lot easier than it came out (and I didn't even get that dirty).
I got the alternator fan and pulley painted to match the rest of the pulleys and brackets.
I also got a few timing marks painted on the balancer. 0 is marked to use the stock timing indicator, and 30-32-34 for total advance timing.
And I removed the redneck cruise control next to the gas pedal that had some evil 2" screws going through the firewall.
