The short block is ready - the engine builder left me a little message on top of the pistons - Mustang Specialties of Pompano Bch Fl are building the motor

this is a 10 - 1 / 302 stroker motor - they are redoing the heads starting tomorrow - you would never know there was a resession going on at that shop - i am shure when they are done the motor will be everything i wanted

[SC Cheesehead]

SWEET!

Love the engine "message." Let your builder know that there's about a bazillion guys that are following his progress, that oughta make him :sweat:

I like a builder who stands by their work. With that said this build should have a name.

too much money

That is the Quote of the Century!:eek:

[magindat]

Did they balance the rods?

[bigbillybbs]

i'm hard :d

[Blackmobile]

I was just saying the builder should put his John Hankock on it.

[BigCars4Ever]

Forged crank??? Didn't see one in the pics.

[FordNut]

Forged crank??? Didn't see one in the pics.

I don't see the need, but it's usually part of a performance build. The failures I've heard about involve pistons and rods (sometimes heads), not cranks or blocks.

forged everything - 8 bolt crank

[BigCars4Ever]

Sweet! Sometimes I wish my motor would go so I can build it up.
