Those new GMPP crates are hard to beat. I recently put a 290HP/350 in my '69 Camaro. I had it shipped directly to my house from some company I found online. I could have saved hundreds dollars if I got it from my local Chevy dealer or even more from a buddy that works in a parts warehouse.

The only thing that was strange about the one that I got is that it is set up for both a right and left side dipstick. There were plugs provided to block the one you weren't going to use. If you're not going to use the included oilpan, or ever need to get gaskets, take that into account.

Check the details of the warranty too. If I recall the details of mine correctly, to get the three year warranty it needed to be installed by a licensed garage.
