A note on Chris' engine. I have the "low buck" version, (eagle rods, no vacump pump and no piston coating) The motor is solid, pulls like a mofo, and has been super-impressive to date. DNE's reputation is fairly well known and I feel 1000000% satisfied with my purchase. I'd bet that if you were looking for a mill as solid as Chris' rocket you'd be waiting until late next winter for a custom deal like his through any of the big name builders. Here is a great chance to pick up a VERY nice mill that is a proven performer, get it completely freshened, and have it in time to use this summer.
If you're looking for big, naturally aspirated, reliable, pump gas power, this is hands down the best bang for the buck you're gonna find.
Chris

460 jus getn it

So what are you replacing it with? Secret?
So heres a question, you getting another engine obviously and you have top notch parts on this one? Wouldn't it be less expensive to reuse some of the parts you have on this engine to build the new one? I wondered the same thing when Cyclone sold his complete engine. He had some high dollar parts in that motor.
