Default My Engine Buildup Progress Thread

Hello everyone,

I'm doing an All-Motor buildup, and thought it'd be cool to create a thread on here for my Mid-A family. It'll be updated throughout the next few days/weeks depending on how much time we have after work each day.

Plans consist of the InlinePRO 2.5L stroker kit, around 13:1 compression, built head.

Everything custom'd by our builder Jeremy Allen "ALLENBUILT" !

GOAL? don't know yet, hoping for a big suprise

Today was Day 1 ( 5/2/06 )

We sleeved a block a while ago, and decided to use that for my project. Today we began work on the block.

Did some milling on the block






beginning of the bore =)


ready for honing =)


We should be finished with the honing tomorrow and have the block ready for assembly.

Once its ready, these shiny little babies go in there =)




I'll be keeping this thread updated everyday/chance i get as progress continues. Enjoy everyone.

You think it'd be possible to say why you chose certain components? Maybe stating the reasons why its better than stock- nothing too technical though or else I'd dose off

For example, those pistons- maybe they provide a better swirl effect, are lighter, surface finish creates less drag, material is stronger, yada, yada, yada... you get the idea.

Anyway, whether you do as suggested or not, I still like looking at plain ol' pictures

Lookin good so far!
