Oh BTW Blue, very nice work. Looks like the outside of the cases were bead blasted? If so, how do plan on tryin' to keep em' perty? So this is some serious turbo project, just the ticket for tearin' up the hills and park in Gatineau. Looking forward to seeing the Blue machine in May when the Toronto area gang goes to Ottawa, if it's ready. Is that the ZE block?

well yeah it was a ZE block but DE or ZE it's the same block anyways :p
the heads are different though

Darn perty, but why didn't you knife edge the crank? Not that I'm sayin it isn't BAD-AS$ allready. What was the cost if you don't mind, I know you've said before, but just too lazy to search it.

Can't wait to do that myself, course in five years or so when the wife gets out of law school.
