Default It has begun...







I was ripping apart my motor tonight with the help of swaggs and Sleeper so that I could run to a city not too far away to have new rings put on my pistons to fix that oil burn-off problem I've been having.

When we got to this point, I'm standing there looking at it going 'why... why spend the money twice? I could just send it off to AEBS for the sleeves, o-rings, custom 9.5:1 pistons bored out to 84mm and new rings like I will be doing soon anyway?'

And... there you have it. I'll be sending this block off on Monday for the build I've been needing. I'm building for 400+ whp this time.

Expect updates from time to time on this. :yes:

I also got in contact with a guy that does mandrel bent IC piping so I'll be doing that too once the block is back with my recently purchased Skunk2 intake manifold. :naughty: 2.5" all the way!

Also pretty sure I'll be going with either a full race or full race style like lovefab exhaust manifold. This thing is going to haul ass... more. h:

Enjoy!
