F-134 Engine Paint Colour

Thanks for the feedback guys, Green and black it will be. I spent last night cleaning up many of the parts. The valves need some work so I will see how extensive the job will be. Everything else is going well as it is so Fricking cold out here. Looking forward to Blackfly season. I made contact with the guy who will be sandblasting my tub. I just so happens he has a at least 6 variants of M35's in his compound.

I hear you on the cold part. Overall, this winter has been pretty brutal, with very small windows of normal.

Are his M-35s all American., or does he have some Cdn MLVWs? I ask because I am still on the hunt for some of the uniquely Cdn parts.

Rob,

Correction to my last. After further investigation. The trucks are GMC 2 1/2 tons from the 50's. Sorry about the confusion. I have not seen them yet. The family owns a trailer business here so they are tucked away in the back.

Hope it gets warmer

Good progress on the engine. Stripped down to send to Sudbury for some valve work. Everything else looks really good. Pistons, crank all in good shape. I have to order some rings 0.020 nd a few other parts. Here are some pics of the numbers stamped on the block and head.

What is the serial number on the boss over top of the water pump? You can get a real mixed bag on the Cdn M38A1s, from no numbers to MD numbers, to CJ numbers.

Rob,

I will be back in the shop next week. I will take some more pictures before I ship it off for port and polish work.

Any suggestions on F134 Hurricane engine parts suppliers in Canada or in the USA that are reasonable in prices and in shipping costs. I am looking for all of the vent lines. I was able to get some piston rings while I was on holidays in the US. I am trying to avoid some of these crazy shipping and import charges.
