Alright where do i start. I got a 91 z24 from my sister, 2 of the lifters went bad and she didnt want to have it fixed so she just bought a 94 corsica. Theres only 58,000 miles on the car and the motor, and the odometer is correct. Im rebuilding the whole top end, all i have left to due is purchase the lifters, full gasket set and the trans filter and pan gasket. The only problems ive run into are removing the oil pan and drain the block fully, the still some coolant in it, but not much. I am eventually getting the car painted black and a set of 16s or 17s but thats it, this is going to be my daily driver. On to the pictures, any comments good or bad welcome
The plenum refinished, still has to be cleared
The block, not sure if i should have it rebuilt, there only 58,000 miles on the car and motor
The heads rebuilt which i just finished up today
The car itself, pretty much stripped right now, but i have all the parts
leave it this color it's a rare color on second gen autumn maple metallic is so beautifull when shiny (detail the car
)
the rear has been repainted, but the front is really faded and sun damaged. My 03 cav is red and i dont want another red car. Plus my first cav 2000 z24 was black and it was totalled so this one is in memory of that one.

Nice, Paint that engine bay while you have the space without to much stuff in there.
The engine bay will be painted as will the door jambs. Mostly everything under the hood is getting refinished to new condition.
