30100, forged internals
Posted by safedawg, Aug-13-02 03:30 PM
I am currently having my headgasket and rear main seal changed, as well as cluthmaster stage 4 and timing belt, The thought popped in my head that I could probably get some pistons and rods as well, how much more labor is that, since they have eveything out it should be pretty easy shouldn't it, I'm just wonderin what would you guys do, cuase I'm gonna go turbo and should probably do this, and since my engine hasn't blown or anything, you think it would be alright without the .20 over, I seen it and the walls look really good.

Very very good idea to build the engine now. You should be fine without the bore but how many miles are on the engine? Howell sells an complete kit with JE Rods, Eagle Pistons, Total Seal Rings, and Clevite 77 bearing. It also comes with a Melling Oil Pump. It's $1099
