Well looks like there has been a minor setback with my motor, but it should be in my hands by the weekend.

But here are a few pic's of some parts I sprayed to day to hold you guys over for a while. Sorry picture quality sucks, had to take them on the celly.





















A little light sanding, and some buffing and they will be ready to go.

I'm a little curious... studs, rods, girdle, 300/200 injectors. What are your power goals? I'm guessing 5 something maybe 6 plus? Or does my math suck? What turbo or turbo's are you running? Very interesting. Man I need more money to burn on my truck!!!

No HP goals in mind, I am just planning for the worst.

If I had to guess it should be low to mid 600 range on fuel.

For turbos I am using a 88mm over a 66mm, both are Turbonetics T-Series.

Here is another pic...........

Just bigger injectors and stronger parts.

No fire rings, there isn't anyone around here with alot of experience with the machine work involved and I cannot afford the freight to have them sent out. I will be using Cometic head gaskets, I am not very concerned with popping one since before I was running stockers with studs with ZERO issues. The Cometic's were more appealing to me anyways because their ability to "reseal" if they were to ever start to leak and get me home.

Ha.. If you learn anything from this its that these engines are one of the most expensive to build, and get the least amount of power.

Still cheaper than a new one though.
