UPS came today with parts from Ireland Engineering. This motor will feature Ross Racing Pistons (89.25mm, 10:1 compression), a lightened crank, race prepped main bearings, total seal piston rings, 3 layer Cometic head gasket, 8lb JB Racing aluminum flywheel, 292 cam, oversized eccentrics, and a m3 clutch.
Here are some pics of my parts:

That are some really nice looking parts!
What are you trying to get out of the engine? Will it be for racing, auto X or road use?

Nice!! I'm using the same flywheel. Make sure you take off the electronic pick-up block on the flywheel's side or it will not rotate around the bell housing. I found out the hard way.

I'm hoping to get at least 150-160hp out of it. It's mostly a street motor, but I plan on also to take it autocrossing.

The race prepped ones have 4 holes rather than 2.. _________________

Well, i know the car is red, but it looks burgundy in your signature, because you desaturated the photo...
I was curious about those wheels as well. Are they TSW's? _________________ click signature above for my resto blog

Yes the picture in the signature was slightly desaturated, and the car does look somewhat burgandy...
The wheels are actually Borbet type BS's with Toyo Proxes T15, 195/45/15.. _________________

Hey can you take some close up shots of the bearings? Is it just another hole drilled there like the original one?
