The Engine is back in the M-471GT, Just in time for Parade Options

Since I helped Steve (smg914) take the engine out back in October, it was fitting that I helped him put it back in.

I will say that if we had been employees of Peter Perfect at Brumos, we would have been FIRED. It took us 5 freakin hours. But we didn't put a scratch on this Super Nice car and I don't think any blood was drawn.

We followed that up some sandwiches. Steve's better half, Janie, had made us some shredded BBQ chicken. Steve put it on the stove and forgot about it. A little toasty. My stomach felt like I had wolves dancing in there last night!.

I will get Steve to put up a picture or 2 as I didn't bring my camera.

I've been thinking I should have mine done. Do you just send them to Jet Hot? Does the finish appear "stock" to you?

Thanks,

Skip,
When I stopped by the shop that did the Jet Hot process they had just finished the process and were removing them from the oven and he said that they still had to bead plast them which gives them a kind of glossy silver/gray look. But when he showed them to me I liked them the way they were and I asked him if we could elimate the bead blasting process and he said sure no problem. They are a dull gray and probably a little lighter than the factory original primer color but I am very pleased with how they look.
