349 CI on the cheap

Jack,
I've seen some engine kits out there for $600.00 but you have to be careful as you get what you pay for and you may be into the engine in a year, thats why we went with the better parts and the cost is a bit higher. So is it feasable to do it cheaper .....yes. But if you have parts on hand then the engine becomes real cheap as you don't have to buy parts or engines. But this is a judgement that the builder has to make.
