Default Finally got my shortblock back *UPDATE*

Took a bit longer then expected but I got my shortblock back from the machine shop today. Manley forged .020 over pistons, ModMax 4340 Hbeam forged rods, and kellogg forged cobra crank. The internals cost $1,600 with the ARP main studs and the machining and assembely cost $600 thats a grand total of $2200 for a shortblock that you would have to pay $3500 plus shipping from anywhere else. I will be putting the longblock togather this week and will take lots of pics and do a write up on how to build your own engine to show everybody how easy it really is and hopefully save you guys some money by not paying people to work on your car for you. Look for it around sunday.
