Well, I am expecting my motor build to be done probably by fall time. I am starting to wrap up everything as i roll along here.  I just wanted to see if there is anything different you fellas would have done.  This is basically a complete run down of what the car will have:

1997 GT stock block bored .20
Manley platinum series 18cc pistons
Modmax 4340 Forged h beam rods
ARP2000 rod bolts
8 Bolt cobra crank w/ 8 bolt flex plate
Complete balanced internals
ARP main bolts
ARP head studs
stock OEM side bolts
ARP crank bolt, ARP cam bolts
IW 10% OD crank pulley (8 rib)
Stage 3 MMR PI heads
Crower high lift valve springs
Brand new lifters
Cloyes adjustable cam gears
CMS stage 3 blower cams
Port Matched Edelbrock Victor Jr. EFI manifold
6061 sheet metal plenum
Accufab 75mm throttle body
All new: timing setup, gaskets, water pump, front main seal, rear main seal, sensors, etc.
03-04 cobra HO oil pump with 15/16 pick up tube
Vortech T trim
SCT BA3000 MAF
New plugs
MPH boost pipe
Vortech mini race bypass valve
complete 8 rib conversion with either 2.8 or 2.9 blower pulley
Paxton Front mount intercooler
AIS stage 2 trunk mount meth kit with tri nozzle upgrade
SLP ceramic longtubes
SLP offroad x pipe
SLP loudmouth catback
MSD wires w/ blaster coil packs

Fuel:
Siemen 60# injectors
Edelbrock high flow fuel rails
twin Walbro 255lph pumps
upgraded fuel lines
FPR

Tranny:
Built AODE with BC Auto 3600 stall and Tru cool max tranny cool with custom valve body

Driveline/suspension/tires:
4.10 gears
Trickflow girdle
kyb agx adjustable shocks/struts
eibach pro kit
mm full length subframes
mm caster cambers
steeda lower adjustable ca's
steeda aluminum upper ca's
welded torque boxes
15x10 pro stars wrapped in MT ET street radials 275/60/15 (28")
15x4 pro stars wrapped in Kumho 165R15 skinnies



I'm shooting for mid 500s-600, depending on how much i wanna play with the boost. before on my stock motor i was at 400/400 and that was through stock non pi heads, stock pi cams, stock pi manifold, sq trim, 6 rib, and about 12psi

I would not have gone with the stock cast iron, 4 bolt main block. I would have gone with a teksid 6 bolt main block, for the money they cost, and the 70+ lbs off the nose of the car, it's a no brainer, rest of the build sounds great!

thanks for the input guys, i did consider it, but the machine work is already done to my block and I'm just going to use what I have. I completely get what your saying w/ the teksid block though. Hopefully next week I can start posting up some pics of the build in the garage
