I finally painted the engine but I still need to paint the oil pan black.
I primered, painted aluminum, and gloss cleared the engine using Dupli-Color high heat engine enamel line of paints. I degreased engine surface prior to paint with Spray Nine. I need to order a bunch of seals, o-rings, etc. Also, I did install my Fumoto valve on the oil pan. I will be doing some more polishing and painting of engine parts...those pics will follow soon. Project turned out pretty good...I can't wait to start putting everything back together! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() www.instagram.com/zeal.eightsix |

Here I've mocked up my red aluminum intake manifold, polished throttle body, polished fuel rails, polished coolant x-over pipe and painted and cleared engine. Next up is polishing the alternator cradle and the A/C compressor. I will also be painting the direct injector fuel rails anodized red.
I will be ordering a bunch of seals and o-rings for the installation of all the removed components...after those are installed I will put together the engine minus the red intake manifold. I'll wait until the engine is back in the car for that because I don't want to scratch it up with the engine hoist chains. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Also, I previously primered the oil pan when I primered the engine, the last pic shows the final results. ![]() I will be building another rolling table with mounts that mate up with the engine. I need to get the engine off the stand in order to work on the Exedy clutch and flywheel. www.instagram.com/zeal.eightsix |

Here are a few pics of some components temp installed. I'll reinstall the alternator and intake manifold once the engine is back in the RS1 to avoid damage from joist chains. Verus cam plate is installed and torqued.
I will start installing all the brackets and such that don't require o-rings and seals. I still need to clear coat 3 polished pulleys then clean and paint the tensioner pulley gloss black. Also, I will be installing the painted Verus fuel rail covers. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() www.instagram.com/zeal.eightsix |

Can't do nice wheels any justice without a big brake kit peeking through the spokes!
![]() A/C Compressor is polished...I'll post pics soon. Also, I just received a bunch of seals, o-rings, grommets, nuts and bolts, etc. for the build. I hope to have the engine put together by the end of the weekend. Next up will be building an engine stand that allows me access to the clutch and flywheel. After that is complete, I will tackle the transmission. I have a Cusco reinforced clutch fork and pivot to install along with a new OEM throwout bearing and other bits. I will be prepping the transmission for paint just like the engine. www.instagram.com/zeal.eightsix |

I don't know what MF Ghost is so no. What is MF Ghost? Sounds like an anime title.

Made a couple changes to my builds.
Build # 2 will now be my (new to me) 2015 Subaru BRZ Limited in CWP (K1X). RS1 will stay yellow, keep the Robot Craftsman widebody kit, and be sold. Engine from RS1 will go into the BRZ. Also, I will keep the BRZ narrow body and install the pictured AimGain GT-S kit (on order) . I will not be running the pictured wing though. The wing or spoiler I will run is yet to be determined. ![]() ![]() I will be ordering Work CR 2P Emotions for this build. I will be selling my near mint Work S1 3-piece wheels...if anyone is interested DM me about it. Work S1 3-piece 18x9.5 +3 5x100 4.5 lips 5 barrel A-DISK 18x11.5 -35 5x100 6.5 lips and 5 barrel A-DISK More to come... www.instagram.com/zeal.eightsix |

I've been collecting cheap and used Cusco suspension parts so I can strip them and prepare them for powder coating. Some will be powder coated chrome/polished and others anodized red.
