You may have mentioned this earlier -- but what kind of compression are you planning on having with those pistons? It looks great!

Thanks! When will you start on Quad #2? I'm sure I will be following that as closely as the original. I'll be sitting at right around 8.35:1 CR. Couldn't have come out better. Another bonus is that the pistons top out at .070" under the deck surface, so I won't have to have them recessed for valve clearance. I will have to figure out a way to mount the oil pump pickup, as the bottom end was previously set up for a dry sump system, so it doesn't have a stud on the main cap where the oil pump pickup bolts on. 
All in all, though, I'm very happy with the way it looks. Clearances all checked out (well they better!), not too tight and not too loose, no runout on the gears. I'll be coating the block soon with Aluminum POR engine enamel. Should improve the looks alot. After all, what good is HP if it doesn't look pretty?

The head will go on when the valve train is finished. I still need to pick up some 1.5:1 rockers, valve springs, and pushrods.

That would be interesting shop_rat, an Ecotec head on a SD. (Sorry I wasn't paying attention in chat last night, lol)

Well, I recieved my Tech Edge WB02 2A0 kit today. Should help with the tuning alot. After doing the MegaSquirt, it looks like I can whip this thing together in no time. 'Course the MegaSquirt doesn't work, but now I have some experience. I'll toss up some pics of the kit when I can. later

"I will hit at least 400hp, and then some." You will. The motors start out at 400hp-450hp, and then break in to nearly 500hp. All I can say for you is to make sure your brakes and suspension are up to the task or you will be a quite challenged driver of such a ride. To put it mildly, you will be in a Fiero shaped Viper... without the big disks. Keep up the good work, Gary. (1988 SD Fiero under construction)
