donsrods is right, im into both ford, GM, and chrysler products, and you just cant beet there long blocks and complete crate engines for the asking price.

if you added up the price of a cheep block, with questionable machinability then through in parts to build the engine and the labor of a pro to assemble it and give you a warrenty of 3/36. im pretty sure what you will comeup with cost much more. anywhere from $200, and up in what you could save, and putt that to a cool set of wheels or headers.
