Sleeving, boring, crank polishing/grinding, balancing, balance shaft delete sleeves, balancer pressed on. The basic short block stuff. That is if I get him to do all that. It will probably be 500-800 for resleeving, boring and crank grinding/polishing

Well I can get a non LSD trans because I have a LSD in that custom cased F35 at my place. Or I may ship that to powell and get him to build me one. I'm waiting for the engine because I want to build a 2.4 or the new 2.5 so I'm waiting for that. A new 2.5 is $2200 used and would have to be rebuilt with custom parts so very $$$$

i had a freaking blast, and once im completely fixed up we will line them up from a dig, i do agree i may end up around his rear bumper. when his turbo hits he steps about a half car to a car, then i come back steadly. inch by inch.

this is the best attitude to have when you talk about the car game. dyno numbers dont mean much. its how you build speed that matters.

I could order a ZFR today but I WANT the 7163 so bad I'm willing to wait. I've got some things to do to my car in the meantime so it's ok. if I still don't have the turbo when you're ready I'll do something extraa myself

I might take that one back mark and give you the other one coming up from Ohio. Since that one has the tabs trimmed on the back I might use that

You know what you're absolutely right. Besides I wouldn't want to choke on your exhaust trying to catch up.
