I Genuinely am disappointed that the head is going back onto that block........

yeah would be better as a table with a small plaque with the words "A Real RB Head"

What am I missing here? Is the block not clean enough or something? 

 

Or are you suggesting 3L block with 3.4L stroker?

Not much excitings lately, been busy with house stuff and wedding planning however managed to clean up the block a little. Been contemplating throwing in forged pistons and rods however that's just opening up a new can of worms. The initial plan was to throw in a stocker motor but.... that didn't go to plan lol.

So being sensible I'm only installing new conrod bearings, spool crank collar, spool billet oil pump gears and then balance the crank. Just trying to contact a few machine shops but they seem to be so hard to get to. Might just rock up and drop it off.

Typical RB cranks, a whole 4mm to drive the oil pump LOL.

With how much boost you run, i thought forged pistons would be a necessity

It's not boost that blows apart motors, it's torque :)

Also being a NEO motor she should be alright with a healthy amount of boost and power. Being a non-GTX style wheel now, I won't be screwing in silly amounts of boost like before.
