Just got a text from Geo Glenn that he is headed my way with my new block and rebuilt head for the XFi. It seems like forever ago that I Effed up my engine with seafoam. That was August? I think? Anyways, will be sure to post some pics of the thing as it goes in. Been driving my truck all that time and will be happy to get the metro back on the road. As soon as that baby's running I'm selling my T100 if anyone's interested.

Nope. You did not read what he said. He said a (new block). Yeah right, I have heard some around here refer to these as better than new.

My very first post in this thread said (may the force be with you). No chip there. Only wished him the best. |

New xfi pistons as well? That is a shame he has a new one when you can get one that is better than new I am told. May the force be with him.

It very well could have new XFI pistons in it, along with new XFI rings also!! But in the spirit of confidentiality, a gentleman never tells. As for better than new, you nailed that one Memphis!! Force?? Who needs the Force, when you have the Glennginator!!

Well maybe his rebuilt head is one of those (better than new) jobs and atleast part of his engine with be better than new. Either way, I am sure it is a beautiful thing and a sight to behold.As to whether it had XFI pistons or not, I figured if gentleman enough to tell us about the new block that a gentleman would tell us about the pistons too.

I think the more correct statement would be, (they did exist). Now you might find a block or some individual parts but not likely you will find any factory shortblock assemblies available. As with most cars, engines are available for a few years and after a set amount of time they cease to make available. |
