/4 engine case prep/blueprinting???, what to do while taken apart??? Options

[Mueller]

Motor is completely apart, just needs to be cleaned....

This is what I have for it so far:
ARP "thru-case studs"
ARP "head stud kit"
(both above item bought from LN Engineering)

I also have a new Shadrek(sp??) Type 1 oil pump for it.

I know I have to do a few mods to the case for the oil pump, but other than that, what needs to be done.
I'm on a strict budget now, so I have to weed thru the
wants and needs and pick the more suitible item now.




Motor specs:
stock bore and stroke (2.0)
Flat top pistons (wiating for heads to figure out the compression, but I want in the low 9's)

stock 2.0 heads, but I will clean up the ports a little
(exhaust ports ceramic coated)

FK-10 cam (pretty aggressive cam, but motor will be Megasquirted, so that should be okay)

Eurorace Headers (not decided on muffler yet, street car, I don't want it too loud)

Hey Chris,

I bought the ARP hardware since eventually, the motor is going to be turbocharged, with the ARP parts, I can crankdown the heads a tad bit more.

Now that I have them, I might as well keep them for this motor, whether I turbo it or not.

I'll look into the "shuffle-pin type mod"

thanks,
