Possibly getting a 1.8 head and short block.
Possible head refresh with a rebuild bottom end (oe pistons and rings with ebay forged rods) incoming! |

So Abe convinced me to hold off ordering the mani and dp until I can also order the exhaust at the same time and he'll do v-bands on the whole system included.

I realize the rods are the weak link, but the pistons arent far behind and can't handle any detonation like the forged ones can. |

But all this might change. My step dad is finally going to let me pick up one of his 240s. I think I'll be picking up the '70 with no rust! |
then you go straight to the LS1 store...
|
haha. Or the RB store.
Its only money... |
Also it may have no rust, but its also been sitting for 10+ years, so its going to need lots of mechanical work before its road legal.
PS - Tell those fools on MT.net to fix my subscription. |
