If I can stop bullshitting and quit buying guns, up be able to get the couple things needed and get back to the damn track. I have an addiction. And it isn't car related at the moment. Lol

I have to figure out what to ask for my 403" LS2 shortblock. Aluminum block strokers seem to sell for between $4800-$5400 depending on where you look.

Never been to Texas, but from what I seen....guns are a good investment.

Why not go with the Dart LSNEXT SHP block? It is about the same price needs less expensive machine work. It also comes clearanced for Dart's new CCW crankshaft which is a nice piece for the money.

Front is all stock with Viking double adjustable shocks

Rear is stock location with TRZ Motorsports chrome-moly double adjustable control arms, control arm mount brace, Viking double adjustable shocks and a street sway/anti-roll bar from HR Parts.

The street rear anti-roll bar is a weak link on the drag strip as it is designed to flex, but I drive the car on the street a lot so...... With that said, I have still gone 1.29 60'.
