>> Hello all,

>>

>> My 1989 560SEC top-end rebuild has been progressing, and is probably now

>>

>> Everything has gone pretty well with only a couple of minor snags on the

>> process. I started the project on February 28th, so about 6 weeks ago. I am

>> about one week behind my own self-imposed schedule and this is mainly due to

>> a week of business travel, waiting for a large shipment of replacement parts

>> to arrive, and a few extra days that it took to get the intake manifold

>> coating completed.

>>

>> You can see the photo album at the link below. This is a full set of

>> I had the bottom half of the intake manifold ceramic coated to repel heat,

>> the bottom side of the top-half of the intake manifold coated with same, and

>> the top-side of the intake manifold coated with a Teflon coating to make

>> cleanup easy and also to repel heat. The exhaust manifolds were ceramic

>> coated to keep temps down. I had a local outfit here in the Houston area

>> called Poly-Dyn do this work -- they are nationally known and are friendly

>> competitors with Swain Tech, another coating company whom some of you may

>> have heard of.

>>

>> I've pretty much replaced every bit of rubber under the hood, including

>> all intake and engine-related hoses, vacuum lines, motor mounts, fuel lines

>> (including the two lines going to and from the fuel cooler), and so forth.

>> Most of the rubber is very cheap, and it's ALL worth replacing.

>>

>> The motor has gone back together nicely. Basically all that remains is to

>> put the intake manifold back together and install it, plumb everything with

>> new vacuum lines, replace the coil and fuel pump relays, assemble the

>> throttle/throttle body/cruise control linkage, re-attach a few coolant

>> hoses, change the oil and re-add the drained coolant, turn the motor over to

>> prime it, and do a few other final assembly tasks, and I'm good to go.

>>

>> Enjoy!

>> Cheers,

>> Gerry
