Default New heartbeat came today

Look what came today WOOT!!!! So psyched right now. Time for some tear down though as I'm gonna sell these heads and I'm sure I'll have other stuff for sale as well soon. Here are a few pics.

This is a good overview of what needs to be done.

I actually got my hands on an LS2 longblock VERY cheap so cheap it was impossible to pass up. So I too am currently starting this same process. Will be using stock rotating assembly again the stock short LS1 served me very well. I am gonna have the block/rotating assembly gone thru on it.

Pretty much my exact situation, what kind of H/C setup are you planning on running?

Yep block is at the machine shop getting new bearings and ARP rod bolts ect. Then the heads are being fixed and possibly a new custom cam, if not I'll reuse my MS3 again depends on budget. I'm shooting for 10s on motor with a lot of suspension and gearing and possibly some weight reduction if necessary, wish me luck.
