Yeah I just bought the last one from ZZP but I can ask them when they'll be restocked for you. It's a great deal for the money and they assemble it all in house. Couldn't think of anyone else I'd rather have build my bottom end.

Why don't you have mongo build you a 2.1? It will be strong, done right and a hell of a lot cheaper. Fmsr has proved nothing to this community yet

I literally can't decide at this point...all options cost about the same with zzp's being a tad more expensive I'm looking at 2300 for a new block rods and pistons..or I can get my block honed with rods and pistons which would be the cheapest route.. Hell even throwing in New sleeves

I Dont know at this point... I just got back from vacation...ugh

Have you actually pulled your motor apart to see if the motor is even salvageable? If you have 0 psi in one cylinder and there's oil everywhere you put a hole through the block most likely

Just a bump for ZZP - ordered my ldk shortblock on Wednesday and was in my garage a week later. They assemble it in house to boot. Not bad for $1500 plus shipping.

That's a good deal but are those pistons and rods better than wisecos and 4340 rod?

Yes but they can build it however if you got the $$$. They said it'll hold 500whp and they have not seen a failure yet. Not that I'll ever push mine anywhere near that but it's certainly reassuring.
