VS8, what where the specs on the engine? Type of oil, mileage, etc. Looks horrible.

I thought you were rebuilding the motor yourself?

What shop? I see there are other housings in the background. I wasn't aware of any other local places beside Alamo Rotary. Good to see you got that bad boy apart. Good Luck.
