Jae does great work which Im sure you know....I dont see your cars over on Plainfield anymore, move back to CT or what?

They are this thin.

resleeving the j32a2 block to get 3.7 isn't really a great idea, there isn't a lot of room to play with, if it was N/A application you might be able to do it, but on boost the last thing you want is a thin cylinder wall.
sounds like a good project, who is doing the motor?

okay JE Pistons stated they can get me the pistons done in 3 weeks, but I have to fill in the custom order form... if someone can help me there it'd be appreciated. I would like to run the 9 lb pulley without the intercooler if possible so what would be recommended (I would assume 9.5:1 is okay?)
Also who should I contact for the connecting Rods?
