Basically he will cut the whole wherever it needs to be.. they do a lot of file core blocks also This I understand. But, what about inaccurate initial boring, on a block with core shift?

Why are you so concerned? Both White Dart and myself told you QMP enough said. If you’re looking to build one of these let us know and we will get to the right people. If you are just looking to pick at something go elsewhere.

If you are just looking to pick at something go elsewhere. Very well said. Ritter is making a product no one else would even consider. On a limited budget. He has worked his way through his teething issues. THANK YOU to all who worked with Kent Ritter and moved this project along. As always happens, the cheap asses, whiny Chrysler guys instead of supporting this guy spend most of their time [censored] on them.

Leigh, they sonic every block, trust me you send a Ritter block to them, it's in very excellent hands. They really are a one stop shop for anything.

I was not questioning the engine shop, just inquiring on the technology they use. When my rough bored 1994 R1 block was bored, Tesar Race Engines had to aquire an indexing fixture from Arrington, that was made to print specs. I see the Rmc V3 probes and compares to print. As far as sonic checking, yes, I'm sure they do. Good luck with what sounds like a good, solid platform.

We are pushing for four digits.. out of an N/A.. we have gotten close.. but not there yet the motor is back apart looking for a few more HP.. my block is still leaking water through some porosity into the crankcase.. going to try to seal that up with epoxy.. keeping the water out of the oil on this block has been a challenge.. Granite this is second generation I know Bob's block is a 3rd generation.. which I am told is a nice piece..

Granite this is second generation I know Bob's block is a 3rd generation.. which I am told is a nice piece.. Where is the porosity? I'm not all that familiar with cast iron casting and what cast iron those blocks are (I'm doubting they are CGI because they'd be more expensive) but I'm told the pour is too cold when you get porosity.

I believe the R series and R1 blocks were machined with factory style tooling and fixturing, which wasn't as accurate as much of the aftermarket CNC machined stuff now.

Very cool Shilo i know you will find that extra hp somewhere. I going for 4 digits as well with pump and race fuel. Bob what's your goal for your build? Well if I'm going to help Shiloh against Chevy and Ford I need to be in the same ballpark (4 digits). I might have to go to the next head program to get what Shiloh is after. I have a few things I'm going to try before more head work but I'll bet the heads need to go back to Brett before we reach 4 digits. You guys need to understand that Brett, Shiloh and a few others are getting ridiculous numbers out of these small blocks. I'll see what I can do to make sure I'm not way behind once I get my deal going.
