[QUOTE="91Eunos, post: 2107242, member: 29616"] Not a big update, but it looks like the block’s finally getting shipped out today; spent the better part of last week driving all over Texas trying to get a replacement vehicle for my wife’s wrecked X5. Finally got her a new Jeep Grand Cherokee up north of Dallas…drove it back Saturday night (crappy pic by the salesman): [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_4043.jpeg"]487254[/ATTACH] The block’s ready to go, just waiting for my wife to get home and/or my son to come over to help me load it up…local UPS shop will take up to 150#, so this should be gtg. Shipping on 108# ain’t gonna be cheap though, LoL. [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_5143.jpeg"]487253[/ATTACH] Here’s the basics of what I’m having done for ~$4K plus any required machining to correct issues. [B]700Hp Rated Shortblock [/B] -Incoming inspection (visual inspection, check mainline, check cylinders, check threads) -Diamond Hone w/Plateau finish -Deck (PCD) -Jetwash -Set ring gap -Set bearing clearance -Check crank straightness -Crank micropolish -Full set of bearings -Balancing Crank, Rods, Pistons (adding weight is additional if needed) -Traum Forged 10:1cr Pistons -Eagle Forged Hbeam Rods w/ARP2000 bolts -Assemble crank, rods, pistons into block I was gonna upgrade to those Boostline rods [USER=6864]@full-race geoff[/USER] showed in his thread, but overkill for my needs …gonna stick w/the Eagle rods for this one. [B]Edit:[/B] $273 to ship the block to NH insured for $500 with windage tray, mains, and rear seal plate installed; UPS scale said 106#. Fit perfectly in the back of my wife’s new SUV btw… :33: Also have a brand new Gen3 crank OTW to him; shipping direct from Ford Parts Giant. Waiting for the ARP crank bolt to show up so I can package it with the billet flex plate and ship them both to him as well. [/QUOTE]
