[QUOTE="ERod123, post: 16647857, member: 199947"] Has anyone built their own terminator engine in their garage? How difficult is an engine like this to build oneself? I never built an engine myself but believe I can work my way through it. I was thinking about building my own engine, and using local machine shops for block and head prep. The build itself is simple: -Teksid block -Db/Dc heads -Stock 03/04 cams, crank, rods -aftermarket pistons (standard bore size) that put my CR at 8.5-9.0:1 -ARP hardware The only thing I would be unsure about is getting the right bearing clearances, the right piston ring gap set, and would be unsure on what specs Id need to provide the machine shop for any block/head work. What other portions of a build like this would be difficult? Is there a handbook/video out there that details, step by step, how to build a 4.6 mod motor? [/QUOTE]
