Even brand new, they look filthy...like they just got yanked out of the block. It much nicer to count them at a shop that outsources rebuilds then it is to count them at the shop that actually rebuilds them...them you're counting rods, pistons, sleeves, valve and spring sets, injectors...all that fun-nuss. V-8 locomotives...how cute! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> "Coal and people have been our two biggest exports for a long time, which has definitely shaped how we think of ourselves."
