Nice job on the build. I want to know if you honed the cylinders yourself. If so, what kind of tool did you use and where did you get it? I'm also in the process of building my z6 bottom end.

Cause Eagles are too wide for the small 75mm bore of a D series. I had to notch my block for the Eagles to fit. Wider and stronger instead of skinny and weak to fit like the stock rods.

let me guess, H-beam rods?

the d-series block can't accept aftermarket h-beam rods, but stock style rods will fit fine
