Well that sucks! But atleast you get to build a better motor and have a more bad ass tub. Good luck.

So here's the run down on my new mods and the parts come in this week.

New ARP Head stud kit

New ARP main stud kit

CP pistons (with pins, rings locks,ring spacer)

Carillo rods (reworked for the beta engine)

regrinds cams (with lash caps)



Rebuild post soon to come. My only concern is the gear from the tranny because it will be the weakness link now. I will keep my tune of 300whp or maybe bring it up by 10whp...who knows.
