Alright well it's almost time for me to buy an engine. I am going to be selling my dirtbike real soon and will have about 4500 bucks or more and I wan't to buy an engine. I was looking at crate engines and not sure if I wan't to do that because I'd like to build my own engine and the crates are a ton of money. Does anyone know of any cars I can find a 350 or a big block in? There are no junk yards around here with old cars, they are all 97 and newer so no way to go to any junk yard and look for one. I don't know what size I wan't.. I have people telling me to go with a small block and others saying to go with a big block. I know I should go with what I wan't but money is the problem and I don't wan't to spend tons of money on this and then get stuck with no money in the middle of the project and have to sell it. 350's are alright and I would like to get one to make into a 383 but also I am tired of seeing 350's and had a 350 in a C10 before and I like big blocks better. If anyone has any suggestions, or have a big block or anything for sale then let me know. I didn't wan't to put this in the Wanted section because I didn't think that it would be appropriate for it. Also sorry if these questions sound kind of dumb or hard to understand, I am just trying to type my questions up fast before I forget.
Again... thanks for any info in advance.
