[Jeff Norwell]

...BUT ,..my fair lady would certainly object http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

[MichaelDorman]

Me want!
I think I have a 350 I could do that to. Cept' I would have to paint the block instead of polishing it. Would prolly' still look cool though.

[Jeff Norwell]

My wife kinda changed her mind when I showed her the "wine ports"
4 for her and 4 for my beer!!!!.....AAAYYYY BLISS!!!!!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

looks like an aluminum block...

cast iron would be what, 200+ pnd table!?

[MichaelDorman]

Actually, all stripped down and dry...more like 125-150lbs (no crank, no cam, no lifters, etc.). Anyways it's sitting on the floor anyhow so who cares. Besides with all that um..ballast, it wont tip over when ya' put your feet on it http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Kojack]

That is freakin' sweet, I love it. I wanted to make a table out of an old flathead motor I had, but it didn't work out. A V8 would work much better though....

[Unkl Ian]

Brush:That would look nice in your office.

Rover/Buick blocks out of the bigger saloons or the Range Rovers are Aloominum.

I was gonna do that too, but never got around to it. I did make a lamp out of a transmission case though.

the glass top, pistons/rods as the tops support and you might be close the 200pnd mark... using stock pieces http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

what would be cool is to get a race motor (mountain motor perhaps??) that had a rod tossed through it... that would make for a fun coversation piece while having people over for a *2 12'r fer $2.00 at the local wal-mart, tasting party*

[kustombuilder]

i've thought of doing something like that before too. that one looks real sweet.

[Thirdyfivepickup]

I think, correct me if I'm worng, that that table resides in CWORD's abode.

That's the guy to fill you in...

[DoubleClutch]

Very cool! I want one too!

[Smokin Joe]

Use one of those lightweight dummy blocks and put whatever intake, headers and heads you want on it.

[Unkl Ian]

Those lite weight dummy motors are expensive.

[BUICKNAILHEAD]

Thats a fucking RAD shot and a RAD idea. I think I might piss the wife off and have a nailhead Finally in the livingroom...I Love you guys!!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
