Getting ready to paint and assemble the short block, nice and clean!
Minimal clearancing at the bottom of the cylinders for the rods.

Those pistons with that ring pack are amazing. Make sure you don't have a traditional .005" clearance or it will sound a little dieselly. Run them at their recommended clearance which is .003" on a 4032 piston. J.Rob
Super nice build , really like Mahle pistons light as can be and make no noise , used them on my 340's , as for the rest of your build , i'm using the molnar crank and rods as well , good stuff should make plenty of power .
Get ready to break out the hammer and grinder. Getting the milodon parts to fit is a giant p i t a.
I think i would paint a nice set of boobs around those to compliment the bumps..
I bilt my stroker last year, it's eerily similar to yours.

i got mine from hughes but molnar sell them as wellWow. Excellent build! Where are you getting the molner crank and rods?
torn between those and scat.
get the molnar set just my opinion , shop that built my engine suggested i get it over the scat or eagle if i had the money , it's what they use on their own carsWow. Excellent build! Where are you getting the molner crank and rods?
torn between those and scat.

I noticed that you used a chain tensioner...Aren't those tensioners intended for the non roller timing chains? Seems like a roller timing chain. would eat into the nylon pads?
Here I was hoping for a Jeep build
Only thing better than a 4.0 would be a 4.25
what's the delta in cost?
Looks to be an Airgap.WHAT INTAKE YOU running ? if it's an air gap forget it runs out of steam at 5600 - 5800 . i got rid of my ported gasket matched air gap for a victor will have it on the dyno soon to see if it makes good power to at least 6500 . air gap made great torque 560 at 4600 but hp dropped after 5600 rpm
