Motor will be home tomorrow! Here's a few pics. Block was decked, bored, line honed, all pins were fit, chamfered all oil holes pretty much everything that needed to be done for it to be right was done. I'll be pulling the old motor on Monday and putting this in Tuesday

HAHA! yea man this guy is good very through. I gotta say tho all the machine work was done on the block already all he had to do was pin fit the pistons and rods, chamfer the oil holes, measure and install new bearings


I also had him change the reluctor wheel so i don't have to run the signal converter box

I know the feeling about needing to be refreshed.... i really need to tear fron of my 6.2 down and fingure out whats going on with the p0016, just have no motivation at the moment! I am off next week, and plan on at least 3 days of treestand therapy, a day or two of attempting to get my house straight from the mess this damn storm turned it into and the rest doing not a damn thing aside from moving my toolbox, which will be taken care of tomorrow!! Need a break from working on cars.... havent had more than a day or two off since my daughter was born last summer, and my recovery from the bypass was last "vacation" before that!!

That seems like a lot of gap, at least for the lower. Looks like wiseco pistons, right?
