Nice update, don't worry. The R will be up and running soon enough! Keep us updated with the new stuff! What motor details are you doing?

My Ruckus Build
Motor will just be a basic rebuild.
Oem pistons and rods.
OEM/Clevite bearings,
ARP custom age 625+ rod bolts,
ARP head studs,
Balanced crank.
The head will be stock unless I sell off a few unwanted things to fund some supertech valvetrain kit and a nice set of prayoonto or kelford cams.

Still deciding with motor. The current oem pistons are ruined so I think I might just buy some forgies (pistons + rods)
Clueless on what to get though. What are your thoughts?
JE 10:1 86.5mm
and for rods I'm not sure what's good on the market. Carillo, Cunningham, Manley? H beam for FI wise?
Looking to make around the 350-400hp comfortably. Any expert opinions out there?
I'm looking into building my motor right now as well. I will probably go with JE pistons, either 10:1 or custom ordered 10.5:1 if they will do that (I think they will). As for rods, any quality h-beam rod will hold that kind of power. Eagle, Manley, etc. I wouldn't spend the money on carillo or manley I beams for your goals. I'm probably going to go with the new skunk2 alpha series h beam rods.
Thanks for the input, much appreciated =]
I do reckon the manley I beams are expensive. That extra money over the other brand H beams rods can buy me bearings I guess.
Still deciding lols
