serious street power.

not to get off topic of the shortblock build but,well the main thing is after my last race of actually going slower after I put a few mods on including alum heads and stuff. After that i said im either stroking it...or puting a blower on it haha.
And now that im going to freshen it up i figure why not.... if i can do it around 2500 dollers then i can swing it... but dosnt leave room for anything else in the future,cam and carb and everything would have to wait..
All the car need needs is really pistons and freshend up.

So what im working on here is the shortblock for now..
I Guess the real question is should i Just keep it simple for the money and do new pistons...which i was doing already,rings,seals,plugs,balence,.030 over
and hardwear?
Or get the crank and rods too for the extra $$$
IS the power of a 512 worth the extra cost...$1500 or so..
