[QUOTE="jony51999, post: 15782718, member: 155011"] I'm about to rebuild my first mod motor. Back in the day I had a small biz building cars and engines for guys...lots of strokers, nitrous, fogger and vortech's from low boost to full tilt cog drive t-trims. I've been researching and learning these mod motors and I'll say this, if you want to rebuild yourself it's not impossible but you will certainly need a good machine shop that knows their stuff and these engines in particular. The iron block is more forgiving when it comes to a lot of things but you still need to make sure that everything is measured and in spec. That said, I would expect that a full tear down and reassembly with minimal machine work would be sufficient, depending of course on what the condition was prior to flood. Bottom line is, either change oil and run it to see how it goes or pull it apart and plan on having heads checked with a valve job and possible guides plus at a minimum a hone job and new rings/bearings.
