Well, I'd like to say I spent it working on the '90 Bonnie, or getting plastered like some of our other members.

But, in fact, I spent it working on one of the projects the Bonneville'* mere existance made possible.

Here'* the play by play of stripping a LT1 V8 down to the bare block.

What a pain in the a**. But, I got to get it finished so I can go to town on the Bonnie.[/url]

That link didn't work for me.

Not sure why. I can see it from work and on the Blackberry, so I know it'* on the server with permissions. The photos are large, so it takes a while to load.

6:00am this morning..the block, crank, and pistons went to the machine shop in Holly Hill. Machinist thinks a 0.030 overbore is all it will take to clean the block up for reuse.

That delays major upgrade to the Bonneville for at least another two weeks. At least I can keep cleaning the gold off the crosslace rims.
