Just did some powdercoating while waiting on more parts. I'm wondering if I can powdercoat the new waterpump? Is there anything plastic/rubber or just pure metal?

Just sandblasting and powdercoating some parts while waiting on the last batch of orders to arrive.

Finally got the broken piece of engine block welded and fixed.

First half of valve stem seals done. Definitely a learning curve...this engine is coming together. Checked the cylinders with a camera, they look clean.
