engine build

hey everyone,
i was going to sell my car and buy an evo but since in going to uti i had to spend money on apartment and appliances and schooling and i already have an 03 OZ i decided to keep it and just rack the miles on this til i buy something else.

im still gunna keep for a toy later so im thinkin about buying a block from RoadRaceMotorsports just plain and build a full forged turbo 4g94. along those lines does anyone know the torque specs on the motor? (connecting rod, main caps, head, cam, etc.) ive looked around and havent seemed to find anything. anyone got anything?

You might be able to save some money by buying an engine from a junkyard.

I strongly recommend getting a service manual. I bought a hard copy a few years ago, but you can get the CD/DVD on ebay for cheap.

If you want to know the torque specs, buy a service manual. Also, why are you building a forged 4G94, are you going to turbo it?
