it was used for a very short time.
i have alll of the parts so it wont be long now.
only thing i do need are head gaskets ( still waiting to see how far the pistons come out of the hole to decide) most likely a stock gm gasket will be used. and i also still need push rods.
components list
eagle forged 3.622 crank ,probe forged i beam rods(w/arp), diamond dished pistons 11517 -15cc dish ,patriot stg 3 heads , futral cam 216/222 546/587 114+3 , arp head/main studs , lpe oil pump, ls7 lifters .comp billet timing chain, yella terra 1.7 rockers ,
and the air/fuel set up ,dual walbro355's (one on hobbs switch), boost ref fuel pressure regulator, -10 feed/-8 returnss fuel lines, edelbrock vic jr intake, 90mm elbow/tb

Man that's awesome! I'm really excited about your set up. I was gonna ask you the components but am pressed for time right now and didn't want to run through your thread to find them. Thanks for the specs, quick question, what made you go forged on the crank? I wanted to go forged at first but was advised that the stock one would hold plenty.

one , my stock crank was trashed so i needed a new one . two its ligter. 3 its stringer and wont ever have to worry. and last it was cheap for a forged cranke , less than 800 shipped.
the motor will be put to the test. a good amount of boost and juice.
