Message: [QUOTE="UNLIMITED_DIESEL, post: 290092, member: 143"] :whs: Do not waste your time filling it and all the crazy sh!t. Its not worth it if you are not going to do the whole build correctly. I can tell you that we just filled a couple blocks and they need to be honed with torque plates to get back to factory piston to wall clearance. Hard Blok will shrink your cylinder wall tolerances and then you will be scuffing piston skirts without the proper machine work. You should also be thinking main studs and girdle at the HP level, however unless you are going to tear it all down, torque the studs and girdle and have it line honed, you are again wasting your time. Find a good used engine with good compression. Take the oil pan off and check a few bearings. Take the front cover off and weld the cam gear, the cam does not require removal for this... Its a little redneck and I don't normally recommend it, but you can do it in the block. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. Reinstall timing cover and oil pan, install head studs, valve springs, and pushrods, and reinstall in the truck. It might last, it might not, but if you are not going to tear it down and rebuild it correctly then that is the gamble that you're going to have to take. Its just not worth doing some things and not others when you are looking at that kind of power level and reliability. Just my .02 cents [/QUOTE]
