on the band wagon here... with $6.5k you have SOOO many options. I would really take a step back and think about what YOU want out of your engine's performance. if building it is a problem, as you can see you can already buy a long block from a sponsor that will put out more power for less $$$

I thought this was a whole car, not just an engine, and I was like, why is everyone telling him not to go for it?
