I was told that if you do not have to cyl bored so they are perfectly straight moly rings may have a problem seating
I am not saying in every case! so I dont need 20 posts about how it worked for them I am just stating what I was told by a machinist
because my block is not bieng bored he suggested cast rings

jamon8, you may be right. I dont know that much about those things so I cant really comment on your post. All I know is that I better not have any other issues with the friggen engine. Im tired of it already. Its at the tuner right now getting "tweaked"

YES
I will have a nitrous kit on this engine. It was built with forged internals for that reason. Im not exactly sure on what type of kit I will have on it. I am trying my hardest to convince myself that a custom hidden kit under the manifold is the way to go. The only downside is that it is very exspensive. I dont like the plate setups due to the fact that Im not convinced that nitrous and fuel will get to the rear cylinders as much as it gets to the front ones. Thats why I want a direct port setup but I dont want the clutter of it all over the intake. I hate clutter. Time and money will tell what I decide to go with. I just wanna get the engine running perfect and put some miles on it before I go and spray it.

I get to that point all the time
I know what I am going to do but it is hard and expensive, so I put it aside untill I get the motivation and cash to do It right
every time I try to cut corners and do it half A** it just ends up costing me more money when I through the cheap parts in the garbage and do it right!

They are there to connect the lines in the pic below so the nitrous and fuel have a way of be plumbed under the intake
