And they can handle a good bit of NOS.... what's the car it'll go in?
    honestly im not shure what it is going to go in yet im going to try and build the motor this summer then i will look for a vehicle that catches my eye probably just a unpainted rolling chassi il drop it in and then paint it flat black lol i just want to build a budget motor and hot rod to have some fun with if possible and i love turning a wrench so its a fun exuse to learn how to build a motor. whatever i do i definatly want nitrous, just for when you need it haha
    do you think this goal can be achived if i could get the motor for 300 or less with a budget of 2400 or less
