probably the most well put explination of Delta owners ever. key words bolded. These are the things that make this market what it is.

I didn't miss the rods question, but not we're not going to post that information.

Ryan has a Clutchmasters twin disk clutch.

No.

I assume it is from a reputable company tho?

There may come a point where I pick up a set of rods for my 2.4 I'm building from you guys, I know they held up in this test...but just wanted to make sure a reputable shop was building these (I leary considering the spring incidents).

As far as the springs go, I run ZZP springs past 8000 RPM regularly. We've had more Supertech failures than ZZP spring failure here, but Ryan still runs them. A lot of times the issue lies somewhere else.

The short block does not come with head studs, head gasket, timing chain setup, head assembly, or cams. It is a block with an assembled rotating assembly, ATI balancer, and flywheel

As far as the rods info, there are more than a few companies who make excellent rods.
Ditto for pistons.

ZZP made a girdle for the bottom end. Their own design?

Lingenfelter was running well in excess of 1000 hp from the ecotec in the car he was eventually killed in a few years back. It was a RWD deal, run in the now defunct NHRA Sport Compact series. He had GM backing. I wonder how they kept the bottom end alive? Hard to find info on his setup. I'm not sure, but I think they went into the sixes with this. I saw him run at Woodburn dragstrip.....it was quite impressive. A Pro Stock car with a turbo 4.

RIP John.
