here's the problem, i just recieved the pistons that are .060 over that i wasnt able to cancel in time, if i cant find a block in the next 2 days i'm going ahead with the .060 because i have no other choice. i've tried TRE, UWI and everybody suggested to no avail. i have a few calls left and then i have to go with .060 setup

hit up Ryan ---> AWD4G63DSM@comcast.net He may have something for you..... tell him the king pin Randy sent you.... He's in Ann Arbor but 2 hours drive for a block that he would not shoot you wrong about..... Ryan is a cool guy. He is the one with the white 1g that says quick4 on the plate right?

I know plenty of people that have made more with more gone. Just when its time to rebuild again find a new block.

ok cool, i just havent heard back from him yet. i might just go ahead with the wiseco's and eagle rods, i can always re-use the rods on the next rebuild.

after talking with guys from slowboy for about 30 min, i decided to just go with the .060 setup for now, when i need another rebuild i'll buy another block and go from there.
basically everything i heard was that the 4g63 has enough room to work with that .060 is fine, its with old v-8's and such that had the cylinders closer together that had problems. they said that they've done many .060 over and larger, and haven't had a problem yet.
pretty much the only change i made to my order then was the mitsu front cover instead of the topline.
i didn't make this post to incite a flame war/arguement, i simply figured i'd update you all on how its going

i just got off the phone with the guys at slow boy. they havent shipped anything yet but the pistons that i already recieved. last week i called on wed. and they said all they were waiting for were the ARP's which they would be recieving thurs. morning. well, they were also waiting for the kevlar timing belt, and the clutch i ordered. now they're going to be shipping everything but tbelt kit and clutch overnight, i should recieve that wed. and then when clutch and tbelt come in they're going to ground ship them, which will take 2 days. i dont think i'm ever going to order from slowboy again. they charged the card the 2800 on april's bill, and its almost june and i've only gotten 370 worth of stuff.

i just got off the phone with slowboy, all my stuff was shipped yesterday morning and i should have recieved it earlier today. now UPS is fucking me over. today was the last day of school but i take no joy in it due to having to wait another day for parts i paid extra to have overnight shipping on, i'm only 2 days away by ground so i'm pissed, i pay extra for overnight and just get fucked out of the money because UPS doesnt understand the concept of OVERNIGHT sorry for the vent but i'm pissed. at this point i dont think it would be good for a UPS person to come near me.
