are you planning on getting Turbo grinds or are you going to keep the blower cams?

You are installing a scavenge pump, Right. Looks like your ready to make 800+rw.

Well we have taken that into consideration, I am running stage II blower cams from comp. We are going to run it for awhile atleast untill I get this motor broke in, Then I will ultimately leave it up to my Tuner(forcefedperformance.com). I'll keep you posted on what we end up with :thumb:

sHE FIRED RIGHT UP TODAY, I just let it idle for a few sec's to make sure there where no oil leaks. A few more little things and off to the tuner for a base tune (no boost).

Finally got her tuned with a brake in tune since the motor only has 45 miles on it.
@ 4K RPM, 1/2 throttle , 4lb's of boost = Made 370hp on pump gas

Note: I do have 22cc dished pistons and and run about 8:1

Right,new bearings though. I have file fit rings so I think I will be gentle and brake things in alittle. How's she run now?

I installed new file fit rings. The cylinders were honed also, so just like a complete new engine. Right now I'm still waiting for MD to finish up the new mods. Here is how it ran before taking it to MD for mods.
