Build me a Small block

JMHO that you can build your stroker for less than is being said here. Just wait for the bargains. As long as you dont have to have it right now you will save a lot of bucks

also,a word about pricing. There is a HUGE markup on auto parts and hi performance stuff is worse than replacement stuff for this. I know. I used to work for a large auto parts chain. They had no less than 10 different pricing levels and then there was the employee pricing which was basically cost. So youe mechanic would buy the parts fro your car at his price level and then mark them up to retail.So he' makes money on the repair through labour and parts.

There is plenty of wiggle room on auto parts and hi performance stuff. They wont tell you this of course. My friend at the local jobber (same chain I worked for 15 years ago) has sold me stuff many times at 1/2 retail or less....

Maybe thats why I think that stuff being sold here still seems on the hi side.lol...
