It is just a rebuilt stock short block, stock pistons, rods and crank. A set of Twisted Wedge heads that I "massaged", small hydraulic roller because of the stock pistons and he will be driving it daily. Tranny is just a stock T5 for now, but I am planning on ordering a 2.95 gear set in a week or so before we start running the car at the track.

Thanks. We have been working on it for about 5- 6 months, and he is 15.
