Motor is on its way to the machine shop

OH yeah, its seat belted into the car

The shop just called back, its ready for me to pick up. A fresh hone and checked out all the bearing surfaces. Now its ready for internals

man that is pretty small to fit in a passenger seat like that good luck with the build!

[mikecentola]

hahaha seatbelted motor... that's awesome!

[neonglh]

This should be much easier this time around. Plus, since I had most of the parts laying around, its so cheap to build. Machine work will be < $150 for honing and head decking, and then new bearings and rings are like $80 bucks for everything. You have to love a tuner inspired motor that is over-engineered from the factory

Are you getting it machined locally?

Yeah, I have a guy on Brighton-Henrietta Townline road that I go too. Bucky's Auto Repair. He knows his stuff, and the prices are very reasonable. He was responsible for machining my turbo manifold so that it would not leak any more last season
