You should have dvd for just wiring conversions. Make your content available via download. Hell DRM it. you'd probably make more $$ since no packaging and shipping. I'd pay $10 for a download.

Just added, we will also be addressing the crank collar issue much to urgency as expressed by Josh Mitchell at RB Motoring who will be performing the engine work. The new collar will be installed by SPEED O MOTIVE and covered in our video. Personally I never had anyone properly explain it to me and after Josh got done I realized it really needed to be addressed before the entire long block was assembled. What can I say? He knows his stuff.

Peace,

Will you guys be over boring/honing and if so, will you use a tourqe plate? Where would one get one for an RB? Thanks for doing the 25 BTW!

Speed O Motive conducted both the bore and the hone of our RB25 short block as well as the port and polish of our head. Not sure about where to obtain the torque plate, try calling Speed O and talking to Mike.
