Re: Ricks-TURBO TALON

Blew my motor up this spring.

Just got the motor back, stuck with the 7 bolt block .02 over. Running 1g rods on evo 9 pistons. Since I'm at school in fargo and can't make it home to often to work on it. I had the machinist assemble the lower end. He installed one of the pistons backwards which kind of scares me (pictured). Ordered some knew arp head studs, gates timing kit, Balance shaft delete kit and gonna order the ACL/Orbit oil pump. And go from there. This is my first time doing an engine overhaul so don't know what imma all need. Especially when I'm 3 hours away its hard to know what I'm going to all need.

Since I'm broke as hell at this point with school and the money i have put into this. I don't have the funds to do anything to my head like i wanted to, or switching to speed density and e85 are out of the picture right now. I might just do some gasket matching, replace the valve seals and clean it up.

Before school started i did get into a wire tuck and painted the bay, also did a abs delete, and AN lines from the tank to rail. Don't really have any good pictures tho.
