Well I have finally started the build its been a long time coming for sure and definitely glad I tore it down. I went with carrillo rods, arias forged pistons and main studs for the bottom end. For the top end went with a tts extreme cam, socal valve springs and bigger push rods ,150 over injectors.. for air I'm.staying with a single s483/96 and a lot of nitrous this should make for a fun year

Plan on doing much street driving with this one? Curious on your decision to go forged...

also, did you decide on filling the block?

I'm going to drive it like normal and not worry about it. I only put 50,00 miles on the other one and I bought it new in 07. But with the power and what I'm wanting to do it will need to.be gone through anyway before 30 or40,000 miles.

[The Funk]

Its the same crank that came in it.. why u ask?

It's seen alot of passes, that's all. A new lml crank is cheap $700 insurance in my opinion
