Re: BBR's big block 83GT *first mockup*
That's a start - is this the same machine shop you've used in the past?
There's always something new to learn.

Re: BBR's big block 83GT *first mockup*
Yep same shop. It's a smaller 2 guy operation. Super nice guys and they usually have a pretty quick turn-around.
Life is short. Be a do'er and not a shoulda done'er.

Re: BBR's big block 83GT *first mockup*
I know the feeling.
Are you going to have the reciprocating assembly balanced as well?

Re: BBR's big block 83GT *first mockup*
Yes, that is why the crank was there. I had to. The Probe forged pistons are quite a bit lighter than the KB hypers that were previously in there.
block:
cleaned
decked
bored and honed
soft plugs installed
cam bearings installed
lifter bores honed
crank:
balanced
journals polished
2151g bobweight
;D

Re: BBR's big block 83GT *first mockup*
Had some help today.
I figure if somebody says my wiring looks like a 6 year old did it, I can correct them and say, it was really a 7 year old. lol

Re: BBR's big block 83GT *first mockup*
It's not a Pinocchio crank, but it certainly does have a long schnozzle!
4.5" of swing plus a 4.39" bore equal 545" of t-top popping torque!
I just wish I had it all finished for the Ford vs. Buick shootout this weekend!!!!!!!
