so with the controversy of the s&p modded oil pan i didnt want to have any issues,so i ordered a autokraft pan.this pan is really really nice!!!

started working on the motor,i went to swap out rod bolts with ARP!i was curious so i lifted a few rod bearings to see if they had any wear.they look very clean with like no wear to them.

im a little messy with the assembly lube!

started re assembling the motor!

installing the texas speed stage 2 243 heads!!!i have to say these heads are nice!!

the texas speed 243 stage two heads are nice!!!!!

im a little stumped about my dampner and water pump lining up?i have the dampner 3mm from the edge of the crank,the specs are suppose to be 2 to 4mm..the belt will ride on the very edge of the water pump..what you guys think???

me test fitting the intake,think im going to sand it and paint it!!

i went with the street and performance motor mount conversion plates!

here is my performabuilt level 2 4l60e,they claim its good for up to 700hp..i went with the 3000 stall.im having a heck of a time to get the converter to seat properly!!
