Blown Motor, Engine Rebuild/Replacement.

Man, that really sucks. Good luck with the new motor.

And good lord, that thing was making some major power before it let go. What's the goal now that you're going to a closed deck block? Do you have to address the cooling system again now that the water jacket is filled in?

The close deck run the same temp if not a little cooler during pulls. The reasons for this is the inserts connect the cylinders walls to the outside of the block transferring the heat to the outside of the block. The inserts slow the coolant flow down a bit to obsorb more heat

Chuck are you still on that gtm kit? What did you ever do with those exhaust manifolds? Last I remember you were trying to find replacements?
