Default What would you do with a F20C block?

If you had an F20c block and some money in your pocket, what would you do?

I am just looking for some ideas to add to the many that are already floating through my head on what to do with this F20c block. I have and AP1 and the SOS stage 2 supercharger kit currently. Any and all ideas are welcome.

some questions to think about....
Do I keep the 9000k redline?
Should I keep the f20 stock crank or go F22?
Should i go all out with the inline pro 2.5L Stroker kit?
Who should build this block?
What type of pistons?
What type of rods?

How many engines have you built? If you are wanting to send it out then look at Laskey Racing or Inline pro.

If you are planing on keeping the SOS kit then I wouldn't worry to much about the internals. Buuuuuttttt if you plan on running more boost in the future then I would look at those two options listed above. I hope this helps a little bit.

This will be my first engine build. I have heard of Inline pro and so far very impressed with them, but I have not heard of Laskey Racing so I will have to check them out...and yes I am planning on getting the most boost I can out of the SOS kit and that is why I am planning on building the bottom end. Thanks for the leads...

Hey Niko, thanks for info. Did you have your s2k motor built? If so, what did you have done? Also when you say local, where exactly is that? I am in Des Moines.

Dustin, if you want to know how local Niko is please visit Vago's Restaurant @ 531 W. Oakton Street in Des Plaines. It is very likely that you will see him there on any weekday lunch hour.

I recommend the greek salad, but all of their food is awesome.
