just a quick run down pistons are 30+ but bores have groves in them so going 40+ . bearing are std and the crank needs machining so it will be 10 big ends and 10 mains....It has a new starter and solineod as well .the exhaust manfold looks new as well i think the exhaust manifold rusted out and damaged the bore and they only did a rebore only to cut costs .parts are orded ill keep u guys informed
:love:
 
hi guys got my bottom end parts today. Im surprised they didnt get damaged they were packed badly .instead of putting the pistons in the middle of the gaskets he had them hanging of the end uneven wieght good knows how many times it got throw looked like it feel of a back of a truck well i bought them from mad dog racing the name saus it all .Well im happy there all here may take the block and crank to the machine shop if i can be bothered id sau another $1000 and it will be done :clap:
 
time goes fast

Its been since feb 2011 since I decided to rebuild my engine and now im moving forward with it. Took the block . Pistons and crankshaft in today to get them machined . I need to find a friend with a credit card as I cant order connecting rods for Summit with out one there a special order as I need 4 only and they need to know the weight of them but in may case it dosnet matter long as 4 are the same weight they couldn't change their policy's for me. Once i have the rods the balancing can be done. hey I can get one of those one time visa cards just come to me know. Here is some pics of a intake I got .I will try and take as much pics to post step by step
I have been thinking of getting a bigger carb than the 500cfm I have not sure wether 600 or 750 but with auto choke this time anyone had any problems with the edelbrock auto choke holleys ones can over fuel I have drill holes in the flap a few times on cars im sure some wouldn't like that idea
