JQ, go to my gallery and you can see a pic of my engine before it went in the car. Talk about polishing, I pretty much went balls to the wall on the "show appeal". Southern has a great polishing shop here in Atlanta that they use, mostly for their hot rod engines. Bill delivered exactly what I wanted (including some things I wasn't smart enough to ask for), but definitely struggled with putting a "chrome motor" in a Cobra. It really came out great. I can't emphasize enough the benefit of going with a super-experienced shop like Southern Automotive to get a RELIABLE rocket motor.
