dude that sucks. was the block salvageable?

 

get a photobucket account then use that to post onto here

 

or just upload them from your saved pictures as attachments where it says manage attachments. The block is fine, the rod is ovalled along with the piston where the wrist pin goes...oh well if u aint breaking u aint racing hard enough. The larger wrist pins are in already and i went with stainless rings this time because the chrome rings were chipping. The side of the pistons was in great shape and the burn area was perfectly center on the piston, so I know i had the air/fuel ratio perfect.

 

i ordered my short block to day from cooks engine performance. he is going to build it for my turbo application. 4 bolt main h beam rods dished pistons bogger rod bolts for just 3500. can't wait but it will take a while 2 to 3 weeks for the build and then he has to send it to hawaii for me. that shop has awesom customer service i did not talk to an operator i talked directly to the owner. he is also going to get my pcm programmed for me.

 

cool sounds good

 

i tried to get the pics from photobucket but it shows an x no pic.

 

you have to copy the direct link then put it where it says insert image here which is the letter looking thing its yellow with mountains.

looks pretty good is where the flange is where the turbo will be mounted?

 

yes that is where the turbo is going to mount. i just need to gut the a/c and heater core. the driver side is going to lose the abs. going to start on that tomorrow night. will have more pics tomorrow.
