Under $4k budget build LA360 build

When I had my crank done this last time, I had them chamfer and de-burr the oil holes. Didn't cost much and really helps keep the bottom end oiled. You might also have him check into fitting a windage tray to the main bearing caps. 340's came stock from the factory with them, but I don't believe the 360 did.

Nice... Thank you! I was thinking about a few oiling mods and adding a wind age tray. Some of my books showed up and I started my reading/studying program. I hadn’t considered and didn’t actually know about chamfering... I just had to Google the term. Lol. Thank you! I appreciate your help.

I’m hoping after reading some of these books I can lock down a bottom end/camshaft/head/intake combo that works well for my needs. I’ll ask the machinist when I drop my engine Saturday for his opinion. I’m hoping my heads won’t need much work beyond assembly. After inspecting them, they need a burr clean up.
