[QUOTE="bigja01cobra, post: 16055837, member: 91090"] I dropped $3500 at the machine shop in October. I had a fully forged stroker kit installed in 2007 has less than 25k miles on it when it went in. Due to lose PTW clearance the builder recommended new pistons. Motor came out because I had leaks through exhaust valves on 2 cylinders. They went through the heads cleaned checked decked for $750 they polished the crank mains only, turned rods, straightened the crank, honed block to 3.556 and had custom set on diamond pistons made, installed all new ARP hardware and line honed. Finally I had them assemble shortblock all for $2750. If I were you I would just supercharge the car now, and then begin piecing together a shortblock. Have the tune on the stock engine conservative and treat the car like you care and it can last. Good fuel and maintenance matters if it doesn't feel right, stop and fix the issue. [/QUOTE]
