The marketing is already done. Thats true. They put the numbers down and started a flood of controversy on LS1tech and other sites. I guess my original idea other than using the car to build business, was to prove the other half of that mystery. What will hold in a car as opposed to an engine dyno. I would like to dump the money into the bottom end which I know is the right thing to do for a proper build. BUT, I plan on CRC being here for a long time, so it will happen, no need to rush it. Stock replacement slugs are on order and should be here along with the cranks and heads/valves back from the machine guy helping me along big time. Motor will be assembled and I can finally start putting the LS1 front end back on the car. My goal is mid to late Jan have a roller with the motor and trans hung in the car, cage completed and what ever interior is staying, installed. Then I can take a short break and lay out the turbo setup and all the small things I need to do from that stand point. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/project-10sec-4k-4thgen/261223)._
