Attachment 51573 Attachment 51574 Attachment 51575 Attachment 51576 Attachment 51577 Attachment 51578 Attachment 51579 Attachment 51580 Attachment 51581 Attachment 51582 Attachment 51583 bot the block and the girdle put together and about ready for some paint and primer. Attachment 51584 Diamond .020 over pistons with Teflon side, and ceramic top coats, should hold up pretty well, and stock rods for now. Attachment 51585 and some nice neutral balance shafts |

Looks like it should be solid. Even with stock rods you should have no worries up to 500whp or maybe a bit more if he decides to go turbo and push it at some point
|
No turbo for me, i did acquire spray though for when i take the meth kit off :)

Looking good. I'd say this might be the most anticipated car to have back together on the site. Everyone is always is asking for his numbers and when it's finally back together they can see what a TVS LSJ can really do
|
cool cool...i have to make one cuz none of the shops have one around me.
|
Ya i always get asked numbers and videos haha but once im state side ill get sum for people and hopefully will go highest hp tvs w/o spray and if needed for numbers i can spray its for fun
