the parts that are manufactured here are as good if not better than the parts that come from america .ps if you are going for boost i would tend to leave crank alone just a good balance etc and use i beam rods would be ok as well
if you wont a quote on a short block let me know you still would have my no
Eeeeeexactly! Knifing only makes any sense on big NA engines with ITB's and such. I would see things getting weak & spun out of whack if you knifed a turbo crank. I'm sure there's tuner nuts out there that would swear by knifing a turbo crank.....For longevity I would just stick with OEM crank, possibly get it balanced if it isn't already by Toyota.

I know the alloy block sleeving.....Are our sleeves even replaceable? Or do we just get a new cylinder block?
