Engine build will start the first part of next week most likely, GT Motorsports is waiting on the 2.5L donor block that shipped out last Monday to them from Andrewtech.
I can't remember all the specs of the new motor, but it will be a stroker 2.8L shortblock with sleeved pistons and completely forged internals, race bearings, a custom built crankshaft with an 82mm stroke good for 800awhp, 2 103mm headgaskets, the whole 9. I'm really looking forward to it, I think they're going to put some kind of plate on it with the company's logo and some specs of the engine. More to come when it gets back to the east coast.
