Personally I would let a machine shop build the short block. That way if you mess up you won't ruin anything.

Lol....great. Will only be the short block though. Did you use grade 8 bolts? Or just the bell housing bolts?

I know you wanna do it yourself but if he messes something up then it's not on you!! Quit being so freaking hard headed, take it to him I will come down and we will have a liquor drink while he builds it!!

Dropped the motor off at the machine shop this morning.
Upgraded with the following-
international HD pistons with coating
New bearings
Balanced rotating assembly
Ringed heads
Upgraded springs
Valve job
They are also installing the ARP's and new gaskets.
Front and rear cover and fly wheel.
I'm still contemplating getting the heads ported and polished.
Edit: going to add a 59mm high pressure turbo along with the 71mm atmo. Fuels staying stock. Stock exhaust manifolds with hd up pipes.
While the motors out I'm going to pressure wash the frame and trans. It's pretty nasty and oily so figured would be a good time to do this.

Girlfriend asked if any of this would make it go faster, said no. She said order or turbo or something! Lol so I am I guess.

Tow powers.
Build sheet looks awesome man! How much is the machine shop costing to do all that if you don't mind me asking?
