I am not a fan of painted blocks.. but this turned out awesome cause it looks like bare alluminum

The block looks good.......I think 22's are gonna be too small though. Your going to be breaking tires loose.

I dont mean to pick but, that clutch might be a little light for your application. The heavy duty is only good for 243 lb ft of torque. ACT offers a sprung 6 puck with a extreme plate......AI4-XTG6. That one is good for 411 tq. Just a suggestion, its your build.
