Re: Wes's Car finally acting like a DSM. I just got the GSX moved into my friends new shop tonight. Get a new 6-bolt block going and put my new pistons in it and I should be able to have some fun again.

Re: Wes's Car finally acting like a DSM. I'm going to pull the engine and trans this afternoon. If anyone want's to come by the shop and hang out let me know. The new shop is in the same place as the last one but on the West side of the parking lot.

Re: Wes's Car finally acting like a DSM. Yeah, the only thing left to remove from the car to drop the engine and trans is the oil cooler lines and the A/C compressor. I didn't work on it at all over the weekend just Thursday afternoon for a bit. I got most everything from underneath out of the way. I even completely removed my front axles this time since I'm going to be changing front knuckles to put on my EVO brakes.

Re: Wes's Car finally acting like a DSM. ^^^^^^^^^ That's a lot of piston stuck to the cylinder wall. Here are a couple other pics from tonight.

Re: Wes's Car finally acting like a DSM. Picked up another 6-bolt today from Frank. Going to make a trip down to Millennium on Thursday to drop off a whole bunch of 4G63 shenanigans. Hopefully it will be a pretty quick build this time around. I'm thinking I might tow the car to RRE once it is done and do the initial fire up and break in on the dyno there.

Re: Wes's Car finally acting like a DSM. Looking good. Your going with the same set-up? (stroker? and same rods/piston combo)?
