Re: PO has me PO'd
got the intake gaskets on...felpro 1255. Bolts sealed and torqued to 11 ft. lbs. Black RTV used top and bottom, 4 corners got an extra portion at the block
now, on to the cooling, see if the electric water pump works

It is possible to give it some texture similar to the sand casting too but that takes a bunch of time.

It will look good when done just not like it was unrepaired. The repaired area will be smooth and not sand cast finish. You can rough it up a bit but I haven't been able to make it look exactly like the sand cast finish.

Re: PO has me PO'd
My kids (and wife) are the same way.... I would be opening a box and they were all excited, now they ask "what's in the box" and I reply with "truck parts".... "IT'S ALWAYS TRUCK PARTS FOR DADDY!" is the average response...
