Blue-gray V8 short block upside down on a garage floor with oil…

A freshly painted blue-gray V8 short block sits upside-down on a yellow engine stand rail on a garage floor, showing the deep stamped oil pan, red gasket sealer along the pan rail and a bare flexplate/flywheel with the bellhousing area exposed. Acetone, Mobil 1 oil and spray cans sit on the brick ledge behind it.
