At this rate your car will be ready for the january cruise in 2013. lol
He knows what he's talking about. However, MAP says that if it's definitely one of their own stroker motors, you can do whatever the hell you want to it and that it doesn't matter what clearance issues you think you have.. *shrug*

yeah, so this is that a map stroker motor rite? i forget cuz its been so long since you talked about it. So it only make sense to run it for now and do some compression test and leak downs. Cool so you will be ready for a cruise.
