well I started putting together my new EFI motor short block this week.
.010/.010 crank
stock bores pistons and rods with some ARP rod bolts in there.
just a ring and bearing job pretty much (had the crank turned since it was a little iffy looking)
comp 252H cam with a new timing set (might degree it in to see where it sits)
nothing fancy on the shortblock for now. it will be getting my port EFI head later this summer I think once I get it finished up and will put the roller rockers on the car now on this head. should make for a cheap fun combo to play with or the next couple of years.
also FINALLY drilled the holes in my new head flange for the tube header. had the darn thing torched out at work about 3 months ago....spent one month in the back of the mule at work bouncing around and then sat in my living room for a couple months but it is drilled now!!! need to clean up a couple holes and layout the openings for the ports. debating how to do them. I can get them torched at work for cheap or drill with a hogan drill but am leaning to seeing if I can find someone local with a mill that could do them for a few bucks or a case of beer.
