yes unbolt rods pull pistons through the top. But i may be picking up a bare 2.1L girdled bare block from zzp to start with so ill only build her once. Making 400+ on a blower and stock sleeves scares me a bit and i dont want to chunk my block if she blows a sleeve

good luck with ur build man. I decided to sell my performance and just slap in a used motor with low mileage. I've been trying to do a budget build and it ain't working out so well.

yea believe it or not the only difference is ill be on a girdled block, no sleeves, with the 82# springs, same comp pistons a little more aggressive cams, ported head as well but my car will be on E85 after my build to run more timing with the higher compression pistons. How much timing could james get out of yours with the bumped compression?
