Parts for 2056, Where to source parts Options

[sjhenry1075]

Hey everyone,

I'm in the process of sourcing parts for my 2056 build. I was able to find 2.0 heads that will be rebuilt by a local machine shop, and I found a set of very nice 40 IDF Weber carbs. I'll also be using my 1.7 case.

My question is this: for the engine internals, where can I find these parts? I did see on the Fat Rimco website that they sell a short block kit for $2650 that includes the following:
FAT Camshaft FC 442 Camshaft / FC 440 If Smog
71mm Type 4 Crankshaft
2.0 Connecting Rods - Rebuilt
96mm Forged Pistons & Cylinders - Keith Black
WEB Lifters
Front Oil Seal
Rear Main Seal
Gasket Set - German
Engine Hardware Kit - Nuts & Bolts
Main Bearings - Silverline
Rod Bearings - Mahle
HD Double Thrust Cam Bearings (2 Sets of STD)

What does everyone think about the price? I know some would not refer Fat Rimco for an engine build, but they will just supply the parts, not doing the actual build.

Thoughts?

Jorge at EM is the one who built my engine. I had to fix some things that were not done properly by EM prior to my engine installation and I am not the only one on World who has had problems with EM. Cost wise he is too far away for me to pay to have the engine returned to him and shipped back to me. I may video the engine disassembly so both parties can agree on the problem.

Thanks for the input on the compression ratio. It was running great, but for longevity purposes I richened up the fuel mixture just a hair so that it will run a bit cooler.

I only plan on getting the parts, I’m going to assemble the engine myself.
