[QUOTE="Sluggie24, post: 15526941, member: 184003"] Well I picked up a Teksid block from someone I know to start off my build. Damn those blocks are light! So my long term plan for this year will be: Punch block .020 over, line bore the mains, true the decks, hot tank and replace all the plugs.(possibly send the block to get cryo hardened) I think I've settled on getting a forged and balanced rotating assembly from MMR because they are a complete done package ready to stick in the block. (Will wait till Black Friday sale) I'm just debating on which power rating to go with. I'm thinking the 750 4.75L stroker so it's overbuilt a bit with a forged crank.(might send that all out for cryo hardening too) I'm also not sure which compression pistons to go with that will give me good street performance while safely taking higher boost. Maybe 9.5-10? Since I don't drive the car in the winter next winter I will pluck the old engine and send out my PI heads for porting and rebuild. Throw them on the new block with MMR blower cams, bigger injectors and pump, and a smaller blower pulley which might mean an 8 rib conversion. I'm thinking, hoping, this will leave me with 12-14 psi and 500 rwhp through my new beefed up 4R70W auto with a more aggressive tune that the new engine can better handle. Also debating the twisted wedge street burner intake but I'm not sure if the cost will be worth the power gain over the stock lower and twisted wedge upper.(it would look good though lol) Any opinions on this plan? Anything else I should consider? [/QUOTE]
