Just got my 2320 T4 from Charles...
I bought a 2320 off of Charles from LN Engineering. It finally arrived the other day.
It is a 71 x 102 Nickies equipted beast with 2.0 Heads and only 3000 miles on it. This engine was balanced by Jake and built by Shad. Everything has been cryo'ed too. I have to tear it down and replace the cam & lifters because he had it set up with a Hydaulic Cam & Lifters. I will be using Ceramic Lifters and one of Jakes split duration cams. I cant wait to get this thing torn down and put back together for my Fasty. Im sure Ill have some questions for you guys along the way.... It also has a set of Pauter Rockers which I may be selling soon

Sounds like it will make a nice mill. Get it freshened up and stuff it in.

just pulled the right head off and found exactly what I was hoping i wouldnt find.
the valve failure that Charles had (caused by the Pauter Rockers) damaged one of the JE pistons, it put a bunch of holes in the top and also wedge the top of the broken valve halfway down into the top of the piston. I knew going into this that I was going to half to replace the cam, lifters and get some valve work done, didnt realize I would have to get a new piston and also have the head cleaned up too from the shrapnal damage.
