[QUOTE="FL Skydiver, post: 16148860, member: 187963"] I almost did the Gen2 but after talking to my tuner I decided to put good rods and pistons in it. The block will be the weak point now since its not sleeved but it should last a good long time at around 850 rwhp. I will say this, it doesn't pay to build it yourself anymore. I figured I would save around $1K building it myself but with all the little things you don't think of and the cost of machine work, its costing me as much or more than an Aluminator short block. In hind sight I would have just bought the Aluminator short block and probably had my car back on the road a month ago. I haven't even started assembly yet, still waiting on my brand new block to be line bored, honed and decked. [/QUOTE]
