Well I got my block loaded up and taken to the machine shop to ensure everything is within spec.
It was of course in fact they said the machine work was outstanding.
Test fitted 335s. This was without any clearancing. They fit but it is extremely close. Also yes I know I need to clean my garage.

I also have been thinking about getting this14 gallon stainless steel fuel tank. It retains the stock location, sensors, and fill neck. Has anyone used one? Also it says the return line inlet is -10 AN and it looks like I would need -12 AN for the feed would that be too much line for a walbro 450lph fuel pump?

It is but after talking to the people who make it it actually is for an in-line style pump. This one is for the in tank style pump. I know no why the other one was so cheap lol.

Subscribed, looks incredible.
There are some things you just can't test in a white lab coat.

Scott and Jeff are referring to how I'll be away at army basic training for a few months. I need to get my block and internals assembled first before mock up. Originally Posted by Hi-Po

Figured out what pistons I am going with finally. Apparently with Wiseco you can't order the pistons separately for the ones I wanted without paying more than the cost if the whole piston kit....I am going with DSS instead since you can order the pistons separately.
I am going with -5 cc flat top pistons so I can be at the necessary compression for FI on e85 when I get everything for that.

Since now I need to buy a whole set of ls3 rockers and stands with my ls3 heads I am thinking of going with roller rockers. I am considering the Yella Terra 1.85 non-adjustable rockers. From what I have read is that there are some pretty good gains from those and no real complaints of them breaking as there are with others.
