Not sure where you heard that, but it's not true. It'll swap in fine. I'll send you a PM with a price.

Block and crank arrived yesterday.

OTTP RSFS ordered and then my truck got angry...getting harder and harder to start which is kind of a big deal when your other vehicle is in pieces in your garage. This build may or may not slow down a bit. Depends if I can sort out the issues with my truck or if I buy another vehicle. Leaning towards the latter

 

take that ****** to a shop

 

I have never taken my to a shop except to do stuff that requires payin alot of attention or risk killing yourself. IE Suspension, the tranny tried, very hard...

 

At this point its not really worth it. Ill probably spend what I paid for it just on the known issues and who knows if that'll fix it.

I've gotten out of it what I spent on it. Its time for something new. Responsibility ftw!

 

90's s10s are going for dirt cheap

 

I've found a few trucks/suv that are lots newer and in better condition in my price range.

Ill still run a 2.6 on e85 with the return style and make
More power than what I've got now. Ill just have to take it slow on the build and I'm sure I can have it done by years end. If not sooner.

 

Aw mann. Oh well atleast youre still gonna git her done. Gives you more time to collect parts and stuff. Machine shops like to take their sweet ass time with your stuff anyway

 

Very true. Gives more time for research as well.

 

So tvs for now and fully built monster next winter. Sounds like a good plan

 

Im down. Now to find someone with a tvs that'll sit on it for a few months whiel I save for it.

 

I know of a couple, 2 to be exact, TVS's for sale. I'll text ya.

 

Truck shopping Saturday, and negotiations for a tvs have been made.

 

Sucks to hear your winter daily broke down. It happens though unfortunately. Sounds like you have some funds for a new one, which was good planning. Just take it one step at a time. No reason to put yourself in a tough spot just for a car!

 

Exactly. I figure new daily now. Tvs after a month or so then slowly build the engine. I've got a good chunk of the parts sitting here/purchased, little depressed they won't get put to use soon.

 

At least you have a perfectly good working engine now, so you can take it slow and get it done when it gets done, and you can enjoy it in the mean time!

 

Yep. Ill have the blower back together soon and injectors cleaned. Get her tuned in spring, raise some hell, profit?

 

You forgot to leave "phase 2" blank

 

My bad lol

 

Glad to hear your hunting down a tvs

 

Should be tons of fun and it'll make a nice addition to my engine

Making my brother even more jealous lol

 

Jealous? Bah! Hes got a carbon fiber wing on the way!

Maaad profit.

You got that tvs on deck right

 

Dat downforce!

Yes I do

 

Well here it is. The new daily. Now back to the build!
