Looks like its going to be a nice setup.What are the power goals for this?Good call on getting them to assemble it as well if you are not comfortable with doing it and dont have all the necassary tools then why bother.

Nothing wrong with having a machine shop build your block not everyone really wants to get in that deepth nor have the time




Notice most people who have the nicest cars have people help them ya cause most of them are college grads who make 80K+ a year

Whatever the fuel cut on a obdo b16 is, 110ish I think, on a sketchy caledon backroad trying not to get your knob bitten off in a car without the most luxurious ride quality aint easy lol

I agree. I think it would be cool to do it yourself but you could seriously ---- up some expensive parts if you don't know what you are doing. Like me.

Thats why you LEARN to do it, theres more than enough walkthrough on the internet. Everyones gotta start somewhere

THEN work up to BEING the guy that builds the motors and makes money from it

Seperates some real wrench turners from people with a fat wallet

Feels great to do ---- yourself

----, even if I'll do the job worse, I'll still do it myself

That logic makes sense with SOME things, but not when it comes to wanting a blueprinted and balanced engine...There are tools involved that not everyone has access to...
