Blown Motor, Engine Rebuild/Replacement.

There we go! Who with cracked manifolds that already replaced them wants to send the set to VSR so they can make a new one? I would but mine won't

Lol I'm not holding out broskis. I've said in other threads I'm going built and have spoken with u about it.
I jumped on the group buy for pistons and rods with Charles that didn't turn out to be a group buy but I went thru with it anyways. Might have someone local build the block.

Glad you are doing this. It will give me a better idea on how the cyro will handle the high temps.

Sorry guys but no updates as of yet. I was kinda hoping to have my built motor by now by at least bobby is staying in contact with me keeping me informed of the progress. I've been holding back on taking anything off of the old motor because lack of space in my 2 car garage but I know I need to get those exhaust manifolds off to ship out.. More pics to come today..

Interested in seeing pictures of the hole in the side of the block and what's broken inside the motor.

So this is a shortblock, right? I'd like know know what is involved with the heads and valve assembly - cleaning-wise, and any other work needed?

Well you guys are going to love this. I just called gtm and told them who I was and the guy on the phone would not even tell me his name but instead try to find someone to help me. After a few minutes on hold the guy who answered the phone came back on and told me no one was there to help. Knowing he knew who I was and after explaining how my exhaust manifolds have cracked he told me he had to go because he could not spend anymore time on the phone. Again to any and all looking to purchase anything from company better be paying close attention to what things will be like after the transaction on done. I now have a TT kit in which I going to have to spend even more money to another company to hopefully fix.
