The 40 440
So now that that is out of the way we stripped the motor down down. I sent the block a new forged eagle crank, pistons, bearings,and a complete engine rebuild kit from summit racing to the machine shop for it to be bored balanced etc.
So this is where I made a bad decision that I will hopefully be remedied soon. While on summit I purchased a top end kit instead of doing my research and ordering individual parts that fit my end game for the performance and use I was after.
Nothing wrong with the trickflow top end kit. Just doesn't work with what I envisioned. Or with the manifolds,and convertor I used.
So enough of that she will be ripping up pavement soon enough. Here are some pics of the build,and end product. Then we will get back to fab work.
Off to machine shop.
Back from machine shop.
Short block complete time to paint.
