5.7 Hemi in a Duster

then i think you misunderstood...........

Consider this: If a core was $5000 around him, why wouldn't he "just buy a crate motor" considering the crate motor would come w/ forged rods (compared to the powdered), forged pistons (compared to cast), forged crank (compared to cast), carb intake, ported heads and a cam for about $7500.

You misunderstodd the intention of the statement...........

There was no attitude............it was a statement considering the financial aspect of the situation.
