Rockmanx Fp Black Complete Build thread.
About time you commented dude lol. was waiting on that. I would think you of all people would be excited after all you did help me select alot of parts post build. How goes the silver beast and the motor rebuild??
ok i have seen your video john i think they called you. They told me your sad story man sorry also said they were waiting on your BR shortblock to return. wish you could have been there hopifully i catch you when i return. so what all besides shortblock is wrong with your whip and how long has it been there??
Im happy for you we talked along time ago you asked me about the black. I won't be building my motor for a while but i just got my exedy twin disc. And next building the drivetrain and then the motor. Good let me know how that stroker feels.
lol i dont know i mean they did have to take it apart to clean but all parts are provided so i mean still motor rx block. im just glad it came with all the high quality parts he promised and not cheap crap and was a 2.3 i seen and heard of folks getting ripped off etc. hey im thinking of ordering another o2 housing next week and sending it your way i dont know where that damn thing went and frankly i am tired of looking ill order it thursday
, they are tearing apart and having to start from scratch and assembling it. It's a good thing though, that way there are no problems down the road. Eitherway, it's going to be a beast with the FP black that's for sure.....Yea man, you def did your homework and got some great deals!
Remember we talked about your parts on the Z.......now that you posted the pics, it's the same exact kit a local custom dropped off. That intercooler is heavy!!
If you order it, you can have it shipped straight to me if you would like
It's a JMS shorblock

I found out the engine finally made it to Buschur for the upgraded 10:1 piston setup, looking forward to getting it back. I have an upcoming dyno event in Kansas I want to make.

2.3 is nice, it spools my fp black by 3800 rpm. That asside i will not get a 2.3 ever again either, because they arent as smooth as a 2.0 and cant rev as high. im happy with my 2.3 tho so far. Good choice on Buschur
naa for a street car 2.3 all day long. if your a dragster then yup 2.0 or 2.1. i dont mind the thread topic change for a bit as parts are getting coated and waiting for the block to get cleaned anywho. why not just pay the money and get a 2.2 then if you feel that way. AMS should not be the sole reason to not get a 2.3 again. LOL heck if i cant sell my shortblock after awhile i might build it into a 2.0 just for the heck of it as a back up. then again i rather get rid of it. man i love not doing core charges
