@
celek, that's your version of the FA225, as DSport lists it, correct?
What is the reasoning for custom rods and pistons as opposed to some of the off the shelf versions? To accommodate the FB25 crank?
Perhaps that block doesn't seem terribly far off since it's sleeved, but to me their motors seem pretty over priced.
What are your thoughts on the other short blocks you've seen on the market like the IAG products? I've been installing them for a few years in EJ land, but I've only had to pull one FA!
