Hey, that info sounds familiar.. so does that list. Its fair game I suppose.

Getting the engine bolted in is about 10% of the way there.
The next 80% can go quickly with help and skill.
That last 10% takes about as long as the 90% that came before it.

okay now that i have been completely schooled into 4g6 101 I was wondering if there was a 102? or a 201? Compression ratios and what not.. Does the stock wide block ccrank work in turbo cars? Or will i need to get ma a spankin new crank. Are there any major efficiancy differences in the heads.
Hopefully saturday or sunday i will have picked up a 4g63 wide block and have lined your pockets for you. But until then if anybody had any knowledge....
I am looking to get this car running with a 63 then aquire a block to build for my 500 hp goal.

Just a note for us Australians the 4g54 came in both wide and narrow block depending on the gearbox and car.
