Hmm..

Anyone know anyone that has done this, getting this done then boring out for the larger cylinders is the starting point for my buildup.

i think i know some people that build DSM's that have cryogenically treated parts, not anything huge though, but ummm...... why do you ask?

NismoPick

There's a company here in Utah that does it.... they say they have dyno proven results... It supposedly aligns the grain in the metal & makes it stronger / more brittle.

100% durability increase on engine blocks and 5-10% HP increase due to reduction of friction = the win, espicially at $300 for the block. The mod that keeps on giving.

Would you be treating just the block, or pistons and stuff too?

NismoPick

Drain fluids & dip block...

For those unfamiliar with what the cryogenic process does to metal...this has a good general write up...you have to scroll down to get to the article(not Z specific)
