Why would you want to buy that for over $5k when you can buy this:

You do the math, it will be very close.
It is up to him, really. But yeah, it could be a better choice.

You can always sell the cam, it is in high demand.

Ok, back track.
Now we are down to a shortblock with cam installed and degreed.
So TSP $2699 + $100 for cam install and degreeing.
Or Lingenfelter $2095 shortblock (exchange) + send cam and get it installed.
Or just get a shorblock and do the rest yourself.

Take a look at the forged 346 from SDPC:
*LS1/LS6 block
*New stock GM crank
*Scat 6.100 forged I beam rods
*Speed Pro forged flat top pistons
*Plasma moly file fit rings
*Clevite rod & main bearings
*Durabond cam bearings
**Rotating assembly is balanced and assembled in block. Also included is a metal stand and shipping crate to protect your investment.
$2,789.00 + freight
I can also offer you any of the other parts you will need at a discounted price when you purchase our short block!!
