Default Help me to find a nice combo,

my motor died yesterday...

its note much damaged but the crankshaft bearings are gone.. in a 32k car..

i file like its.. just not rigth to take it a part and put it back to geather with orginal internals,

so i am lookin for a good combo to put in, maybe a stroker kit, i am hot for some lunati setup,

but because i live in iceland i hafe to pay so much taxes when it gets to me that it cant be to expensive,

what i want is a piston/crankshaft package with everything that i need, and a good cam to mach it,

i want the car to be.. streetable and good to use most days, but with more power.

thanks all,

I would think, to keep you way down on cost, use stock internals but get some forged pistons with like -2 or -4cc reliefs so you can run a good cam. If you can swing it,throw on some milled budget heads with the right gasket. The stock crank is good for some serious HP, not sure about rods though. You still need, no have to, use the typical bolt ons to see the potential of your upgrades.
