For what its worth I have two 400 blocks that a cusotomer has brought in and both failed a sonic test, One clylinder in each block and they were under .130 he should be putting them on ebay if you want to roll the dice.

thing is im lookin to make around 600hp to the wheels and its gonna have 2 stages of nitrous 150 out of the gate and 300 on the other shot. so i guess im gonna have to bit the bullet and give dart a call and see what my budget can afford lol

600 hp and 450 worth of nitrous might be a little more than the SHP block can take. Definately more than a stock 400 should see being that the SHP block is stronger than a stock 400 block.
If I were you I'd look at the Little M. I saw a used one on YB just yesterday.

A place like Summit Racing will always be expensive, since they have the overhead of their ever-increasing building. There has to be a small li'l company somewhere online or even near you that you haven't discovered yet.
