Building My Own Motor
wow this is pretty cool. Well all I can say is mad respect I can't do this. I can build you a PC with anything you can think of and over clock the sucker, but work on my own car hmmm I just wish. My GF *****es all the time why I spend so much money in the shop when I could do it my self. Again good luck and subscribing.
I'm in the middle of tearing apart engine no.2 (engine no.1 coming out of machine shop this week 
). About a year and a half ago I wouldn't go near my car with a screw driver and ended up dumping waaaaay too much money at a shop that ultimately took me for a ride (and not in a good way). Lessons learned the hard way... My point is that if you're somewhat mechanically inclined, you can figure this out. Take your time, be careful, and do your research prior to getting too deep into it.
If you search around this forum, you'll note that some of the most respected tuners and engine builders here got into this business just a couple of years ago. It just takes some genuine interest in learning the mechanics of how our cars (stock or modified) work.

For any that dont know ----A bore plate is machined from HEAVY material and simulates ur head being in place---Steel,Aluminum etc is very elastic so what bore specs u get before assembly will change once u install and torque the heads. The plate makes the Boring Bar "Think " the heads are in place there by giving u a True,Square,Perfectly Round Bore
