    Oh yes you are, so come by some time and look through my garage sale.

    Zeake, dont buy a motor with a 4.1" stroke in an iron block you would be fine in an LS2 block or C5R block but not an iron 6.0 block. Causes lots of problems. The motor is goign to be rebuilt with a 4" stroke this time but it wont be going back in the truck.

    Im ready to get rid of everything so I can get my new truck. Of course one of the first things will be taking it down to Allen to get a conservative tune put in it

    Cody isn't the guy who did your work really really well respected? Trying to figure out why you have had so many issues?? I've been following your progress on PT.net and I bet you're ready to pop......

    I built the motor the first time, the piston design was wrong and screwed up my cylinders, this last time I sent it to Richard at WCCH and they put wiseco pistons in there, they werent comfortable with teh design but wiseco pounded them and said it would be fine they gave in and I have an oil burning motor. Making a piston that works iwth a 4.1" stroke in an iron block is difficult so Im swapping to a 4" crank and getting it rebuilt and selling it to a guy I have been talking to on here. If he backs out Im still going to sell it since Im jsut ready to wash my hands of everything and get a new truck and start over. Ill probably be getting a new truck around May.
