Well, I sold my 87 T-Type..... now the short block build I started has to go....... willing to sell as is or finished... up to you...here is what I have done so far...

Virgin turbo 3.8 109 block......cylinders are std bore but a little out of round..will need a bore & hone...you can get away with .010 over
( I was going to use a .020 over diamond piston)
-the block was hot tanked, thermal cleaned & inspected
-we decked the pan rail .003 (yes the pan rail) to make a nice flat suface for the girdle
-we replaced the 2 center & front main caps with Billet caps
-Line bored & Honed
-installed CAT girdle (put another 2 hours into girdle on the mill to clean up & fix clearances
-installed a CAT 4340 forged stroker crank 3.625 clearances on mains are almost done....very minor polish to crank to clean it up..will to set the clearances where you would like them..tight or loose.... I was going for
.0020-.0024....will tighten it up if you like

All in all it will need the rest of the short block parts... I willing to finish the build for someone or will sell as-is. I will post pics up. Please only serious people reply... not looking to waste your or my time!

CAT crank------------$500
CAT girdle------------$175 with about $200 in labor to make it fit right
Billte Caps------------$225
109 Block ------------$300
King Main bearing set--$30
deck the pan rail, cut the billet caps for girdle, line bore & hone, polish crank
I hand another local machine shop do the line bore & hone sense we don't have the attachment yet
I have about $1600 in it now...taking REAL offers.... IM me for anymore info
Can be viewed @ PM&E machine shop

Align bore and hone was done at Teds, (Ron will verify)


The rest was done at PM&E (Chad Jones from PC, he is running MO's old shop in Waipahu)

Yup, the Align bore & hone was done by Teds......Chad will finish up the block for anyone......or take it as is..... Chad @ PM&E is awsome though! He is building a turbo V8 motor now! Needs to go... first $1400 takes it. Will also give the buyer a set of stock heads complete, stock rods & pistons to.
 
needs to go..this is a steal! best REAL cash offer or will just wrap it up & put in storage for another time
 
still for sale...if it doesn't sell in the next 3 weeks it will be packed up & shipped with all othr things
 
Ok, I have had a few offers but here is the deal...the first $1000 takes it..if it doesn't sell within the next week or so it will bagged & shipped for free back to the mainland for use in my other T-Type..I don't need the cash & will be shipping 2 other motors..... to duplicate what I am selling for $1000 no one on the island can duplicate for twice the price period. Thanks RON
