mini update

Okay after some research and deliberation I have decided to ditch the LQ4 block from my project. While it is iron and will withstand boost it isn't the best choice as it will be running on the edge and I don't like that idea. I always choose over-built as opposed to being on the edge. So instead of using the used LQ4 (iron LS2) I have decided that it is worth the added cost and start with a nice, new, ......

nice buddy. overbuilt is always better. and don't push too hard cuz then they will cut corners.

This guy is an old time racer and cutting corners he won't do, he just won't finish it and the sound of that sucks.

Actually the LSX454 is still a SBC, just a really good one. :)

It will be 4 years on May 21st. :(

I don't like people/shops like that either.

This guy already told me that if I told him to cut a corner (I wouldn't) then he would quit doing the car. This guy isn't cheap but he does great work.

you get what you pay for my friend. i would rather pay a little more and get a quality build then pay less and get a questionable build.
