Sounds like we got a regular pit crew going here! You guys shouldn't hesitate to stop by LSE and see what it takes. I know they will atleast have pointers for all y'all. Best of luck!

Re: someone wanna build with me??

with my luck, I stop by LSE every other day, but its usually talking about me paying them to get my shit working, I dont get the impression that they will be doing a class on rebuilding engines any time soon, correct me Josh if you have one coming up.

Re: someone wanna build with me??

Building, or rebuilding any engine is a big deal. I say pay someone to rebuild your motor for you, I doubt you have all the tools you need to build the engine right.

If you have the time, patience, willingness to learn, and just common sense, you can do it. If you don't have one of those characteristics, have someone else to do it.

Thats great, I would watch and learn. Its nice you have access to the proper tools and I hope a clean facility to build a motor. Find a reputable machine shop to do the boring/honing/decking/balancing etc.

No classes available in the future, sorry.
Building a motor isn't that difficult, its having it work afterwards is the tricky part .

hmmmm.....do I do "the booda"?....I hate it when you guys speak in code, I can only ASSUME what that means.....and my answer would be no.

not because of any personal or moral issues, i really could care less, it's just I get random piss tests, and I can't afford for the military to stop paying for my college.

How hard would it be to just put rings in a block?
