    I have a GE block in the garage and I want to get it cleaned up and painted. If if it is the same as the GTE that is because I want to do a build.

    the crank, rods, and pistons are different but the block itself is the same

    sweet because Im going to buy everything new. yeah it works out to be alot more money but with a minumum wage job you just can't pull 1200 out your ass in one pop. This way i will have a new engine build stronger and I will know its not going to blow up on me when I boost up the horse power.

    From a GE with a rod knock. And I have another GTS that just got towed into my driveway today for a friend justin because it has a newly rebuilt engine in it and I am going to put it in the maroon GTS with the customer interior that I sold to him. So I have another blown engine.

    you only screwed up on that list a couple times.
    i would go with eagle h-beams, aries pistons (which should come with a ring set), and what are you planning on powdercoating?

    yeah I figured they would come with rings but I didn't want anyone to jump on me about "were are your rings". But im a newb at the rebuild thing so here I go.

    if you want to cough up 8-900 bucks for a set of rods, then yes they do. eagle shot peened, forged, h-beams (tested to 47psi by paradise racing) sell for 400. i'll take the eagles!
