on what the block ?

Block, heads, intake manifold, engine supplements... Black would be nice and clean.

Just an opinion.

sh!tbox is in, first time ever doing anything like this, an by the end of it I hate it !

after having a clean bay an engine, power steering pump says "what about me" !

typical, fix one thing something else goes wrong, so now pulled the pump off cause it looks like its leaking from the back of the pump, dads keen to pull it apart but I'm done, so it's staying like this tonight,

here's hopin I can get the obvious things done for the RWC,
windscreen
rear Springs cause they are loose when jacked up ?
exhaust ? is it going to be to loud ? (2.5 " from the cat single muffler ? )
will interior be a problem cause its half finished ?
pads for the front
rotors ? they are warped but dunno if its bad enough not to pass

if anyone can shed some light, much appreciated
excuse the mess but I am just over it tonight haha

if you look at the drive way there's still a bit of staining that I still gotta clean up

a little bit happened last night, I changed rear springs again to standard wagon springs, they are really high like I'm actually thinking they arnt gonna pass it,

half way through changin the front springs, which will carry on tonight after I finish work,
also quit my job yesterday for a better suited, better conditions, better money an more overtime, so I'm pretty wrapped about that should start seeing lots of things happen to the ute,

here's a photo of the finishe bay, re ran the amp power cable properly which I'm also happy with
an cant get over how good the car feels now, it's like peice of mind that its reliable

still a mess but
can finally see the sump haha

Looking good mate , must be great knowing you have a better job now and having done all the engine work yourself is always valuable knowledge.
