I am looking forward to seeing photos of the finished product. hope it all goes well for you and yes I am a little envious. Hay what is concreting the block?

 

[holden_4aw_lyfe]

yeah ill get them up as soon as its done! thanks mate. Concreting is exactly what it is, it adds extra strength to the block for more boost application i think

yep they concrete the bottom water jackets works better if your going to run it on methanol (doesnt get as hot)

grout filling is more the term LOL stops the cylinder walls bowing out under high cylinder pressures
