And ya some sponsors would be awesome LOL!!! Seems nowadays if you aren't racing or pulling with a big budget team you have to have a nice set of tits to get sponsored in diesel industry LOL

 

LOL That might help your chances. Actually that might help with more than just sponsorships... haha

Could be a short rod, cracked/holed piston. But I don't think it's that extreme. You gotta pay to play!! Was to be expected, the boost/fuel I'm pushing thru these internals was a ticking time bomb anyways...

Well, Parts alone for a HG job is $1000...if it's anything with rotating assembly it'll be 10 grand or more. I was waiting for this to happen

The engine I have price out right now is just over that. Bout 17,500. I don't think I'm gonna go that route tho, I'm probly gonna do LML slugs and rods. Can hold a respectable 850 flywheel hp and I can get em for about $150 a hole. Then a crank and hardware...

 

The engine I have planned out with blackout that price is me showing up, they do all the labour, machine work, tuning and button everything up. So the trip down to the states as a whole would cost me 20 grand...but I would have an engine that's built for 1000rwhp...

 

Carillo rods

Mahle pistons

Arp girdle/hardware

Premium bearings

Machine work

Welded crank

Keyed cam

 

It's what I want just don't know if I should spend that much. It's a lot of cash...

Can't take it with you.

Lol...honestly right now I have my house for sale and we are preparing to move across the country. Which is gonna cost a lot to begin with cuz economy back home is so crappy not gonna make any money on my house. To say the least it Didn't come at a very good time. I'm not rich lol, the wife unit is gonna shit a brick when she finds out how much this is gonna cost.
