I do not have a car at the moment!
I ALSO dont have the block at the moment EITHER!!, i have dissasembled everything as you may have gathered, and sent the block and head to get checked out at a shop in nevada iowa (im from NW Iowa) to make sure everything is OK. i actually am thinking of keeping it just, because im a packrat?? and idk. if the time comes when i want to do another buildup than i will have a decent block, if its okay, but i am thinking that im going to keep it for a while, sorry to dissapoint you man!!
and why the hell dont i just have the shop im ordering the parts from build the short block for me?? i guess i got a little overwhelmed with all of this coming at me so fast i didnt think. sigh**
thanks for the heads up with the GReddy kit! i know for sure there isnt a car dyno within 50 miles of my area so ill have to call up one of my buddies to trailer it there when i get a car!
