Default Hi Flo Twin Turbo

Yes, I took the plunge as a donor car. My shortblock that had been built by Nick D at APE was gone through and rebuilt. You guys would puke if you saw what it looked like with under 3k. I added some AFR's into the mix, a new kit , and a new cam. I am sure the guy's from Hi Flo will keep us updated on progress.

What if any problems were uncovered when that APE motor was torn down?

According to my engine builder, my block was never line honed. The main bearings were all across the board. I have the rod and mains that came out. They look similar to Nasty TA's in the pics he put up. According to Nick D now of Victory Racing he set the shortblocks up according to Chirs's specs. That is all I know. I had the crank turned and polished the block line honed and new bearings throughout. Not a good story...............
