Hey if you need help let em know I am free on weekends I have a tool we could use to hone the cylinders you put it in a drill I used it when I built my VW engine..I would tear it down and have it hot tanked it will be all clean and it has no effects on aluminum unlike some methods.

I don't have the internals yet, and might not have them for a while since I'm going ahead & buying the turbo & stuff. Is the honing and having it hot tanked something I should wait on until everything is ready to go, or could I do all of that to the block and leave it sit until the internals are here?

I just went up and got the heads/headers/dp that I had ordered while I was away from my Dad's house.

I have to contain my excitement until I figure out what I need to do to them before I strap them on. I'll post pics later.

You can hot tank the block and hone it out. If your not going to rebuild the heads do not have them hot tanked it is not good for the valve seals. Unless your goping to rebuild the heads then take them apart to. I have a OHC valve spring removeal tool too.

Sweet Pat! You'll have AVCS now, correct? I've been scoping out a few deals on some v7 & v8 heads as well!

Jeremiah....I'll be in touch soon! Any recommendations on where to get the block hot tanked? I won't be rebuilding my stock heads. Just going to use them as-is, and replace with the aforementioned ones as soon as I can.

I believe you could try calling Teds 845-3488 if they can't do it they know who can. The only other machine shop I've heard good things about is Head Hunters 841-2171
