just a little teaser 
I got a call from the machine shop and my billet main caps are installed and the block is ready to be picked up, then I got home to my EPP order (big thanks!, these guys dont mess around, once I placed my order they had it balanced and here in no time!)

to hit 1k to the wheels on the dyno ha. but seriously to have a 700HP everyday street car. Ill be using an ST80 kit from Josh @ Kentucky Turbo
Weston Machine in Piscataway NJ, they charged 400 for the caps and 380 for the install (bore/hone/minor machining to thrust area) I did not have the caps pinned and they came from Weston (the callies/W2W caps were backorderd for and unkown amount of time and W2W recommended Weston to me)

Not sure, the plastic bags the rings were in had been opened though and the rod bearing were not sealed to start with however I would imagine EPP knows what they're doing.

Exactly, everything is very tediously weighed out to spec, nothing gets over looked in this area.
