    I am NOT going to spill anything in this thread

    But I will reveal what has been going on.

    So as most of you know I swapped out the motor this summer. I got to thinking that "hey I got a spare block now what the hell why not. I am going to build a bad bitch" And so it began.

    The first things I ordered were main studs and a balance shaft delete kit. Had to start small



    I dont have a picture of the main studs, but they look like a box of bolts.

    Then money was tight so I didnt order anything for abit and just worked on dis-assembly.















    Then a Black Friday deal came up on extremepsi(i love that site) got my rods for 307.49 shipped to my door. They are Manley H-beams with ARP rod studs.



    Those sat around for abit while I just cleaned up the block.

    I was waiting anxiously for my CD to come due. As soon as that came due I got to ordering pistons. They are Wiseco 10.5:1 1800hd, they are the big boy baddest of the bad pistons IMO. Paid 543 shipped







    I have other parts on order but I wont tell till they get here. Also I will not tell you any further plans till they happen.

    Those pistons would do wonders at 15 psi
    God created turbo lag to give the v8's a brief moment of hope.

    Underated would be the man to talk to. He's the only one I know of that has built a badass NA 4G64 motor for the 8G platform before he went turbo.
    Brandon what CR were you at? 10.5:1 or something?
