Dinking around in solidworks. Have this so far. Has all the oval ports, and recessed ports for schedule 40 1-1/2" pipe.
I have no idea how to do the port match, maybe someone else can chime in and help me.
This will obviously be available open source on our website, and I will probably do a small run of them in 316SS.

I'd like to say I figured it out...but no. Tommy came in for the rescue.
Looks pretty good I would say. Going to get some quotes this week, and see if I can do a run of these in 316SS. Obviously the file will be shared on our website.
Also got some tires mounted up.

It'll be fine. You can it before with my other RS3's, I ran my old RS3s that way, and Martin has run his that way quite a bit. No biggie. Plus it looks super chunky.
Looking forward to playing at ORP again in September, this time you'll have at least as much grip as me

Got a line on a 95 block with the oil feed on the side. Will be combined with a VVT head, 99-00 intake manifold, 01-05 MBSP and oil pan. Basically the best bits of all years combined.
Pretty stoked to get this going. I was not expecting this as soon as it's gonna happen.

Hell naahhh. I'm going to start collecting parts soon. Work on the manifold. If hailey gets into nursing school then all hell will break loose in January and I'll be in the garage every single night.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the 01-05 MBSP require 01-05 main caps?
From what I understand if you swap the caps you absolutely will need a line bore.
I've been drinking today so please fact check me.
FWIW I went 84.5 simply so I had a fresh, unspoiled bore to **** up with my new rings and pistons

Oil pan+MBSP are all that are needed to swap in the MBSP.
I think I'll do 84.5 why not.
