my machinist suggested me to run GRP rods since the car is only going to be for track use. Is there a real advantage to aluminum rods. My plan is to build a bullet proof bottom end and upgrade my top end when i can. i really wanna run profiler heads because eventually i wanna make over 1000hp on motor.

well i got my A460 block over the weekend. what a beefy piece for sure. just notice that on the #2 main web there is a serious casting imperfection. i wonder if anyone elses block was like this but here are some pics finally

badsnake306 on November 30th 2010, 8:36 am

i ordered my pistons. i decided since there was no different in pricing on the 4.56 pistons to 4.600 pistions i obviously went with the 4.600 lol. 572 cubes now. here is some pics of the car

badsnake306 on December 28th 2010, 8:36 am

well my pistons should be here in two weeks. i just was wondering if a 4.600 bore was too big for my old school A429 heads. But here are some pics of my pushrods and rockers Twisted Evil

do you have a pic of the imperfection ??? might just be a standard deal

yeah if you look at the first pic of the block, on the second main web you can see where its a machined surface then there is a small dark spot. it seems like when the block came out of the casting mold it took some material but there is no cracks. its about the size of a quarter and about 1/16 deep. i guess im just overly picky about stuff i spend over two grand on lol i expect it to be perfect.
