I was finally able to build my long block! This is the result of four days, around twelve hours a-day!

Big thanks go out to Jake Raby, and the rest of the RAT team for letting me build it at his shop. Please do not call or e-mail about building your motor there. This was a one off deal for projects I helped him with over the past few years.

This motor is based on a GE case with some mods to use 914 items in it. It has 105.7mm "Nickies" with JE pistons, 84mm crank, chevy 2inch 5.5 h-beam rods, RAT 9225 cam (comparable to a web 86c), ARP case thru bolts, ARP head studs, LE 200 (highly modified) cylinder heads, and a Kennedy Engineering 914 flywheel machined to use a 228mm disc with 915 spline hub & stage 2 P/P . It has taken longer than expected to get to this point, but I'm very happy. I will go back and do the break in and dyno runs after the first of the year. I need to build my header first. This has given me motivation to work on my car again!
