Update .
So .. less than a year later , RPG built motor got pulled as it was was eating a lot of oil and coolant . Will had thought it was the Diamond pistons used In the build as they have issues that were NOT known at the time of the build.
So, my “spare “ motors came in handy.
This was an Alfonzo Novelllo build . Basic build starting with a never previously run voodoo (scored for cheap ) upgraded with Manley rods , replaced crank as old one was rusty (sitting in my storage for a year) , GT500 head gaskets , PAC valve spring upgrades and Head studs . Of course billet OPG / CS .
Added oil and coolant cross over lines .
Old motor is with RPG and has been torn down .
As he suspected the issue was the Diamond pistons wearing badly and a small head gasket leak .
He is refreshing the engine with new RPG spec Manley pistons , upgrading the Manley specific H rods to the Manley lightened I beams, GT 500 head gaskets and R phasers.

Fonzie Gen 1 motor is still running flawlessly .
Down to 2.75 pulley but no dyno .
RPG refreshed motor is on its way home after 4 months .. Not Wills fault . Just supplier issues and we had to change the specs in the end as could not get the planned Manley stuff
Ended up with voodoo spec Oliver rods/Mahle piston combo.
I will share build pics when I have them .
..... and Fonzie Gen 2 build is also ready for pick up !
Same as the one in car now but Gen 2 block, longer 12 mm head studs and GT 500 cam covers .

I am hoping I don’t need these spares so may be i can put one in a fox body .

it’s going ti be “christmas “ in September when i go pick up my haul of engines .
Second long block is a Gen 1 voodoo block /cross plane/Boss crank build - JE 12:1 Gen 3 coyote Pistons /Molnar power adder rods /Boss crank .
Also picking up a stock Gen 3 coyote block going in a Fox body /10r80 swap .

Short block in back ground is Gen 2 voodoo block/cross plane /Boss crank/JE Gen 3 coyote pistons /Wiseco boost line rods
Will be taking Gen 3 coyote heads with me to complete long block when I got get my haul .
