LM Speed makes them for his kit. He is the only one I know of that has them. He would probably sell one by itself since he makes them.

I have no blow by. I did replace my pistons with forged ones. I was having oil consumption problems so I had the block honed and replaced the pistons. The pistons are Mahle Forged 3.905. But other then that everything else is stock even the main cap studs.

Some people had to cut thier hood. I did't but it does rub when I nail it. I need to trim alittle more off the TB so it does not hit. To me thats not a big deal but the cowl is the ony required cutting, the hood well, you'll know if you have to or not when you install it.

When I got my kit it was an intro kit for the first 10. so I got it alittle cheaper then the current price. If you give Ed a call he should be able to give you a quote. You have to talk with him, I cannot say otherwise because its his kits and buisness. I will be pulling mine which has less then 2000 miles on it in the next 30 days or so. Not to mention I bought ALOT of stuff through Ed not just the kit. He is great to deal with.

That's one bad SS. I'm sorry that you have to get rid of it. I'm sure that everything will work out for you in the end though.
