Who are you going with for the staged portion? I looked at Full Blown and they look nice

just got off the phone with IAG. going stage 2 12.5:1 block. and depending on the shape of the donor heads i might just have them rebuild them and do the whole block for me. fuck my wallet |

I dropped off all the stuff at IAG today. I started to make a video since I thought it would be cool but it was mostly just put it on a card and sign a paper.
But i did take this picture |

nice, did they swap your functional shortblock for one that's already rebuilt and what's the reason you want to stay at 12.5 if you're going with big boost later?
Also curious if IAG gapped and filled the rings for you based on your planned power target in the end? |
