I'm taking out the stock block and putting in a WAP with keith black pistons and rods and a forged and bullnosed crank. Stage 2 ported heads from MMR and putting my procharger back on lol. Really I am nervous about getting timing right when I put the block together. I've never tinged a block. I'm having to put the bottom end together myself also, I didn't buy it as an assembly. Out has been balanced though.

Just make sure the block is checked/and or machined along with whatever crank you are using if it isn't new. Doing the timing ont he 2v isn't that bad at all, now 4v... thats another PITA.

So I can call you when Im timing my motor? haha

I timed my 2v and like uber said its not all that hard just dont rush anything at all with a motor swap, dont get rammy and just take your time no short cuts and it really isnt all that bad.
