ps, i kinda feel like a F UCKING *** hole............[&o]
Well, if it was about 3 years ago i would have told ya to just roll up a fatty and say **** it all! lol anyway, no reason to feel that way. Things happen that may push you plans back a little, but if you really want just continue to push forward. Your goal of 400hp is not out of reach, even on a 2.0l.

yeah, and hopefully i will get there soon, like i said before i emailed the guy and maybe with any luck he will still have the 2.0 block.... if not i will just go with a bored out 2.0, maybe i will not even go stroker, it will prolly be more realible than a stroker block....... who knows, i get my intake on friday, maybe that will get me motivated again.....

check www.car-parts.com for blocks in your area. I've seen them as low as $100 At least it will elp you wit the howell core charge or even to save money on a local build.

or maybe i can get a rebuild kit from some ware with forged piston and rods, and just find someone else to build it???? may save me some money but i would have to take the block an hour away at least, to find someone to build it for me......

Things could have been a lot worse. I'm glad you got your money back. I hate people who want to rip people off out of their hard earned money.

I will be the second to say that the 400 hp SOHC Neon from Roach is a 2.0.
