The short block in question has 90,000+ miles on it, and has two cylinders that the rings are shot in.
The combo is TFS h/i/c, 70mm turbo making 11 psi. It made 507hp and 497ftlb to the wheels with a Bob Kurgan tune at his shop.
I know I'm going to hear the whole "buy a good block" shpeal, but it's not realy in the funds.
I was just thinking of buying some new forged pistons (the ones in the block now are cast...lol) and punching the block out .030, new berings and call it good.
What do you think???????????
