I think its gonna be a pretty stout little small block. The base is there everything on the bottom is new except the rods. The heads have been worked but they are all stock replacement valves they are the original 1.88 valves. Eventually if I ever want to get some more power out of it I can upgrade heads intake and carb and have a pretty hot setup I believe. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be happy with it as is tho. In a street car ment for cruising I think it will be more than enough
