You pulled yours and sent it in and they are already done?! Still doing the big bore sleeves?
BigRed460's build thread
- Thread starter BigRed460
- Start date
Yep re-sleeved, I paid up front before I pulled the first bolt out of mine. Money talks, and I let them use their preferred parts(piston and rods brand) and they have a good working relationship with callies and je. Custom pistons only took two weeks. I know they hate when someone buy some rotating assembly of the web.
All the threads I read said be ready to spend twice and take twice as long as much as you planned, that seems to only be half right. If you get you ducks in a row you can have the motor done in a month.

Wow that was quick, what bore did you end up with 4.125"?
close i think the exact #'s are 4.123 x 4.006. I want to leave rrom to bore next time I rebuild. I will only be gaining 25-30 ci and about the same in hp. Maybe 550rwhp with the cam and stuff... Not exactly good bang for your buck, but the motor should last.
Until you decide to do the heads later, with the larger bore you could stuff a giant set of valves in the heads:rock:
Thats why I did the smallest bore I can, rebuild once I get tired of this power level. Some nice custom Gen4 heads and intake w/ coil on plug would be next. I just need some winning power ball #'s lol
One of these days I'll win the lotto, but I guess I need to start playing to increase my chances
Nice, how much more work you plan to do to the engine bay before starting to put it back together?
Its done, painted and all my nitrous wiring is cleaned up. I need a lift, I didn't want to rent it till had the motor back. Tomorrow starts a mad dash to this thing in. I need to have the block, tranny, and drive shaft back in by Friday. I have to go out of town on business Friday till Sunday then I have Monday off. With any luck she will fire up Monday, not sure yet I might have to leave the intake off.
picture of head studs, assembly lube, aem wideband, and a crank bolt from hell. summit racing got me for 650 this time...

You around 10.5:1? Or more?
Wow that's an ambitious time table
Less closer to 10:1, not exactly sure till I have the heads, waiting for valve spring locaters
I leave for the mile in two weeks, I don't have a choice. It's time to burn the midnight oil.
I have to be in Austin Friday night till late Saturday afternoon. I was suppose to be off for my b-day Saturday.
