This engine is going to be insane.

We start with the bare block, then we have the standard K-1 crank, but instead of K-1 rods, we are using Carrillo H-Beam rods and instead of using the Carrillo WMC rod bolts which are comparable to the ARP 2000 rod bolts, we are using CARR rod bolts. The rods alone are $2,000. The pistons are our in house favorite 2618 Wiseco forgings with gas nitrided GFX rings. The skirts and the piston tops are coated as well as combustion chambers and bearings. The heads will be over ported with bronze sleeves pressed in where the pushrods feed through in order for us to run a 3/8" pushrod instead of the normal 5/16" pushrod. We will be using the stage 2 heads with titanium retainers, PSI springs, Stainless valves, machined locks, hardened locators, viton seals, and bronze guides. The block will be O-ringed to ensure we do not blow gaskets out and ARP main and head bolts are also being used. The block will also have billet main caps.

Glad to hear that. After PRI show need to start getting some other details together with you and Lisa. I'm ready to start buying driveline componets, set-up for a roll cage fabrication, check with Techco on what we need to get their system able to run 12-15 psi, safety harness', ect. Have the money now to start accumulating parts from you and BMC both. Still a lot of choices to be made. An in car display like Zetronics or the new Diablo Trinity to show boost, a/f ratio, eg temp, ect. would be a nice safety feature to keep tabs on what the beast is doing. Drag tires and rims will be the very last purchase. I still want all first class componets for the remainder of the build. I feel really good having selected PPP and BMC for this project. Your input (and Tim early on as well as Lisa)have really helped me more than you know. After waiting so long for my car to be delivered this part seems easy! It will be very interesting to see the Techco s/c in action! Any input from experienced members is welcomed!

I have an AWESOME custom roll cage guy here who will be doing my Challenger as well as NASA road race Mustang, so I would like to have him do your cage. We met with a BUNCH of companies at PRI yesterday and today and have a lot of information and recommendations for you, so let's get together this week and come up with a list. PPP is knocking out that awesome engine for you, Techco has the blower coming here, and we have all the other goodies within close reach to put this all together for you.

Sounds good to me Lisa. I'm ready to go! Trojan- you were kind enough to reply to a pm I sent you when you were in the early stages of your build. You gave me a good starting point.I went out to SEMA to see your car and watched the live feed of your tune a week ago. You were a motivation for me to do this build when I saw the great job you did putting yours together!

Just an update - things are coming together. There are still open issues but working on this project is fun and exciting. I feel lucky to have PPP and BMC to work with. Friday I get the HRE wheels - can't wait. After Christmas car goes to BMC to be torn apart and then the real build will begin. I'm expecting an awesome build
