looks good man thats not a bad price either. I have a fully built b16 and it cost me alot more than that

 

dang fool, that looks like a nice block.

 

nice price...nice block

 

thanks!

 

mmmmm...nice, just wondering where did u go?? u in so-cal? , daam mang, i just wonder what ur'll be smoking when properly tunned.

 

 

that looks pretty quality,,, but i cannot see spending almost 4k on the sleeving,when stock sleaves hold up fine even past 450 hp,, its all in the tuning, as you prob know,, actually i cant see spending that unless its for a pro import or some ****, 4k? this import business is a scandal!!!!

 

better safe than sorry. I'd much rather spend $4k once...than $2k a couple times to get another block and internals ecah time you had a SLIGHT bit of detonation.


but, i have to ask...why such low copmpression ratio!??!?! There's no point in going that low anymore. Gas it good and tuning is great...you're just wasting what could be more power

 

damn looks like a bomb could go off in there, i've got rs sleeves, good qual just nothin special to look at

 

i went with the lower compression to be safe, as well as the resleeve. as long as i put down 425 + i'll be happy i know its all in the tuning, hopefully i'll be having tony tune my car

 

great looking block, and good choices on your part

so he doesnt have to pay 2 times to have it built when he decides to go for 700whp. the sleeves dont cost 4k either. the sleeves are around 1000-1200.

 

nice shiet!

 

thanks

 

nice set up man

 

damn..no props to the guys who put it together..

 

nice block.. what kind of fuel management you going to use?

With that much money and work done to the block he'll probably just throw in some weak *** dsm 450's and vafc hack it. ..i'm sure that'll be good for 425 hp on pump gas.. ...
