I had the 352 FE rebuilt. Decided to clean up the engine compartment while I was at it. Here's a before and after pic-

Looking good. Can't wait to see how the old FE looks in that nice clean engine bay.

A can of spray paint cleaned up the engine.

you could eat off that motor! Did someone rebuild your motor locally? (just in case..)

There is a local machine shop in Escondido called HDS that did the short block rebuild.

Any work done to the 352? or just a stock rebuild?

I just went with a stock rebuild. I had serious blow by and engine leaks. Took it apart and the rings were gone.
