Message: [QUOTE="elrodalexander73, post: 1183485, member: 16217"] When I rebuilt mine, I had it bored, line honed, blah blah and balanced, a small shop called EVI in Swarts Creek Michigan did it, now for some reason they have a **** rep but Stan did me right and to me that's what was most important.. But when I picked up the block I double checked everything, plastiguaged and measured every ring, thoroughly cleaned everything again as well, I didn't just guess. Pistons were delipped, forged rods were rebuilt and cryoed, ARP head studs, 910s, S.B push rods, and you can bet your ass it was the cleanest assembly I had ever done.. More ether than I had ever used. I did small pocket porting (I'm no experience head porter here, just did what I could carefully) new injector cups, new valves too, seats were polished and pressure checked. I installed the adrenaline and a P.O.S D66 that had been on it for 2 years, added some 250/200s and had it tuned pretty mild.. I dynoed on a load dyno that needed Calibrating at the time 573hp and 1160tq, but like I said needed calibrating, I used Clarke Power Services Dyno in Nashville Tn to do it (I work there and have access to both engine and chassis at any time to my liesure, the chassis will pull down 750hp pretty decently) but now we have a new set up and I need to get it up there after I eventually change over to an S468 and some other changes... You can build your own engine if you have tons of patience and understand what will happen if you cut corners... [/QUOTE]
