But I will add one detail right now... if I do complete this, there is going to be no way around it requiring very light modification to the nose of the crankshaft. Its an easy modification, but the crankshaft will require removing. This means engine out, timing covers and chains off. You can get the crank out with the heads on and leave the pistons and rods in there... but unless youre an NA car, you might as well do the pistons and rods once youre this deep.

I will probably start posting about it in January.
Great, my "future motor build" keeps getting more and more expensive.

Keep building cool ****, man. One of these days I'm going to be writing you a fairly substantial check.
