Nick, what's the new deal on the sleeving? I want to purchase a big bore block and build the motor myself.

How about a GP on a prepped, 4.100" block. I know I'm interested.
I'd be interested in this also.

Nick, could you also compare the price for us for a ready to go resleeved all bore block, to your price for a all bore short block assembly with 4.10 pistons and stock crank and rods?

The intake that Ernie sent us was a cold "air" intake and not an intake manifold as in the Ls6 one.

We have made some sleeve changes as of late and will have no problem selling the machined blocks outright. With core exchange the fully machined block will be around $2300 retail plus options such as main studs and o-rings. I would have no problem doing a GP on the blocks if we can get about 5 sold. Let me know how much interest there is and we can go over pricing then.

Nick Agostino, in Minnesota for the weekend!
