Bumping this thread so it shows up within 30 days. This should be a sticky.

Re: lan's engine build and engine build how to

Hey Mike it's been a longasstime... lol since I have read on this thread, I'm too far behind to read it with the patience I have right now, so I just have a few questions. I noticed you no longer offer the separate parts on your site(cams, rods, low compression pistons etc) are you still selling them??

I'm looking to do a build on mine with the 7:1 ratio to use the gt4088R with the help of Big Valley Performance, can I still get the pistons at least from ya??? What all should I get and what do you recommend for clearances and how big of a bore etc.

Re: lan's engine build and engine build how to

I'm not selling the parts anymore but I am selling complete longblocks. You can't trust a machine shop to get the crank right and it takes a few thousand dollars in precision measurement tools to check it. I have a wider selection of cams now and a wider selection of pistons allowing me to build 108 different configurations to suit pretty much any applicaiton. The price is the same no matter which options you choose--$6500.

Re: lan's engine build and engine build how to

This short block is for sale now. The specs and pictures of the build are of course in this thread: pages 1 through 4.

The high lights are:
Ballanced past 12,000 rpms
Coated ECUtune high silicon aluminum main bearings
Coated ECUtune high silicon aluminum rod bearings
Perfect oil clearances with tolerances 20x more precies than OE
Eagle H-beam rods with arp 2000 rod bolts
8.5 compression forged pistons with thermal barrier top coating and anti scuff sidewall coating, tool steel pins, and stainless rings
.0015" step deck

In short the most awesome short block you could build for forced induction, fully documented, fully proven, and broken in with about 3,000 miles and a 7800 rpm red line. $2,900
