Engine bay for a facelift.

Hey guys, so i finally decided to spruce up my engine bay. I never liked that my truck was so nice and painted outside compared to the engine and engine bay which did not do the outside justice. Taking the engine out was a sinch , after removing the front grill / rad support and grill took a total of about 1 1/2 hour doing the work by myself. Then degreased and powerwashed the engine bay







I had a body shop cancel the AC holes in the fire wall and paint the engine bay and chassis / outter / inner fender wells with epoxy chassis paint it is not glossy at all but per the shop it withstands grease and scratches , so we shall see.









The engine is a GM Crate engine 350/ 700r4 Combo with less than 500 miles on it so its really clean and cleaned up real easy . I always wanted to paint it Chevy orange before we installed it when i first got it but it all happend so fast it felt like the engine went straight from the tractor trailer to my truck

Taping up the engine was actually harder than it seemed, took me a good hour getting all the nook and crannys
