jnjdragracing Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Hmmmmm as well, Pictures would help. Did you tell the guy what your intentions were for the engine? What kind of warranty did you get. Should be interesting...... Not sure about the turbo 350 trans, it is going to be hard to hook up and I can imagine alot of parts breakage due to the low 1st gear.

dustin280zx Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Is it just me or does that price seem steep for the parts. I can't believe he uses stock gm rods and heads for phase one and two. I mean its not like eagle or scat are that much more expensive to put in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_hunt Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 It's not that sturdy of a motor IMHO, since it uses stock rods. But it's his money. The blower setup is about 4000 so for 6K, I would have expected alittle more than stock pieces. But then again, it's his money. I think he could have went BBC with the same blower for that matter. But since it will smoke the tires anyway, who cares! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t mean this as disrespectful, with the lack of capitalization, limited punctuation, run on sentences, spelling, and your use of the word “likeâ€, and “umâ€, your posts sort of remind me of an 80’s "valley girl" conversation. Again, I mean no disrespect, it is just different and has the appearance of possibly being voice recognition typed/posted… Good luck with your project. It should be scary quick by most street car standards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
