Built Motor Progress

[D1rty-max]

Well guys, my build is getting close to being complete! I figured I could post a few teasers, sure can't wait to get this thing! Also feel like this is a decent time to introduce myself as well the names Preston, Iv been what you might call a silent enthusiast on this forum for quite some time Iv learned a lot here, and I appreciate everyone's help along the way looking forward to the good things to come!

Also to note, wasn't sure which category I should put this thread so feel free to move it if necessary.

Air will be an 69sxe/484

Fuel will be 200% overs with a 10mm in the valley with a secondary stock pump up top

Rods are Carrillo!

Nice. I am just sitting here playing the hurry up and wait game. :roflmao:

Are those cast or forged finger pistons?

 

[D1rty-max]

They are cast I felt they would be plenty for what I wanted to do with the truck

Jaw dropped over this lol. Awesome.build man. If you don't mind me asking qwhat do you have into the motor alone money wise ? I'm at the point where any more I do I'll be building my motor. So curious as how much a build would cost me. Also what are you building it for sled, race, street? Hp goal?

Not to speak for him, but I'm guessing 29k

Thanks guys! and I'd say You're right on the money! ^ haha but I'm building it mainly as a strip/street truck! Never honestly thought I'd spend as much as I did but I'm sure it will all be worth it. :thumb:
