Cleanin'....
Finally took the E 'modder' frame to the powdercoaters', dug the motor I'm going to use in it out and started cleaning it...

This thing is nasty; it looks like the PO ran it (for a while...quite a while) with a leaking CCT, and to add insult to injury, ran through some fresh road oil somewhere along the line; I found more than a few chunks of gravel stuck to the front. And never cleaned any of it off... it's thick and baked on...
It checked really good; compression was between 190 and 200 in all cylinders. After I get the big chunks off, I'll adjust the valves, install an auto CCT, and pull the pan to look at the gear dogs in the trans.
