Great update, bargain for the rotors

I know of a decent 200 block if you want to push more power and keep your mind at ease

thanks for that mate but this motor will only be running 380bhp tops as 4x4 gear boxes don't like much more than that . I would love a 200 block but I just cannot justify the out lay on one . Thanks again mate

Reason I say it is, I wouldn't run a 205 at .5 at that power. That's why I went 200 to safeguard all that work. Let me know in future though

They look great Coley, fair play. You should design a little logo and engrave them on the bell if you were willing to sell things on the side
