FAQ
What’s the difference between this Race Builder Box and a complete long block?The Builder Box ships as an unassembled, blueprinted short block kit so you can build it yourself. A long block arrives assembled with cylinder head installed.
Does it include fuel or turbo components?No—this kit focuses on the rotating assembly and short-block internals. Add fuel and air components separately based on your goals.
Is there a core charge?Yes. Industrial Injection assesses a refundable core charge (commonly $2,700) with a breakdown for block, crankshaft, rods, camshaft, and engine crate. Check current core terms before purchase.
What break-in oil should I use?Industrial Injection specifies dedicated break-in oil for the initial 300–500 miles. Change the oil and filter after break-in.
