I almost forgot to ask...but what are the advantages/disadvantages that are present in a high reving SBF as opposed to a torquer (I think thats what they call it)? As I said in the previous post, i'm used to driving Hondas so i'm used to the high reving motors + i tend to wind my gears all the way to redline pretty regularly....

Those crate engines can be a real deal, and are sometimes cheaper than we can build one because we pay retail for each and every part. But that long block for $ 3600 is still far from done, you will have another $ 2K at least in additional parts to get it complete and running........stuff like intake, carb or carbs, pulleys, flex plate or flywheel and clutch assembly, headers, distributor, etc, etc, etc. The little parts we never think about start adding up real fast when we build one of these engines.
