what do you mean by blueprinting? if you mean a full blueprint, youre pretty much wasting your money. all the engine builders i've talked to have said a full out balance and blueprint is a waste of dough unless you are pushing insane numbers. if youre going to go that far down, just bore the block and balance/polish your crankshaft. bunner engine development in hampton will do it. they build insane motors. call 411 and get their number. are you thinking about doing this to your probe?

getting your cylinders ported and polished? i dunno like any project expect to spend about $2,000 - $4,000 on a block that will take a beating. the best way to go would be to find a probe specific place that sells block packages. 8:1 might be too low really. find someone that has done it before and ask them the best way to do it before deciding on what youre doing because you dont just want to jump into it. plan on spending a lot of money
