Sounds like a nice build. I just got my 2.4 block last week. So you can add a Apex Silver evo to that list

This looks likes a sweet setup and it looks like you're having a lot of fun with it! And its really cool that you're doing the work yourself, that saves a lot of cash. Good luck with getting it all back together and I can't wait to see how this thing makes out!
