    Rebuild and a blower?

    The 331's I've looked at cost 3 times more than a rebuild. I can rebuild and get the blower for thousands less.

    Rebuild and a blower?

    Finding an affordable small block isn't my problem... it's the additional price of heads, intake, cam, injectors, R&R, etc., etc., that I'm having a hard time affording. A nice long block alone costs over 5-6k.

    Rebuild and a blower?

    I see your building a 331. How much is your total build costing you, plus installation? The 331's I've been pricing are around 9k.

    Rebuild and a blower?

    I was thinking about getting a new motor (331 Stroker), but it's just too much money. So, instead I'm thinking of having my 302 rebuilt w/ forged pistons and adding a blower... maybe a Novi 2000. What do you guys think... is this a good idea?

    440hp 331 Stroker for $7800??? Need advice!!!

    This price includes the full install, so labor is built into the price. Where'd you get your blown 342 for $7k?

    440hp 331 Stroker for $7800??? Need advice!!!

    I've checked out their Website... I should probably give them a call. They list a 450hp 331/347 Stroker for $6,295.00. If I went this route, how much would it cost to remove my tired 5.0 and slap this monster in?

    440hp 331 Stroker for $7800??? Need advice!!!

    Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately I don't have enough know-how to build this up myself... I wish I did. I've read that 347's don't last long without a rebuild... they start burning oil after approx 20k miles. The performance shop thought a 331 would be the best option for me, the car will be...

    440hp 331 Stroker for $7800??? Need advice!!!

    I've started saving for a 331 Stroker that's rated at 440hp with 10.5:1 compression. The total cost, plus installation is $7,800. Can you guys take a look at the specs and tell me if this is a good deal? This is a complete engine package... the only thing it doesn't come with is a dizzy and...

    Engine shopping... is this my best option?

    I'm shopping around for a new engine, and this is what I've found that best fits my budget. It's a 302 with 345hp for $3200.00. Does a better deal exist than this one? If so, point me in the right direction. Here's a link to the engine I'm looking at...

    Throttle body question

    I've always heard a 65mm TB is best for a mild modded 'stang.

    which headers should i buy

    I just put BBK 1 5/8" shorties on mine - I like 'em!

    Got headers! Will I hear/feel the difference? PIC!

    Alright guys, the headers are on! I can tell a difference, it's a bit louder and has a better tone. I'm happy! I got a quote on a used Cobra intake while I was at the shop, is $325 a fair price? Thanks.

    Got headers! Will I hear/feel the difference? PIC!

    Are you talking to me? I don't have a stock H, and I don't have cats. My stock headers are definitely the weakest link in my exhaust system.

    Got headers! Will I hear/feel the difference? PIC!

    Thanks for all the responses everybody! Headers were the only thing still needed to complete my exhaust setup, so it made sense to get them instead of another bolt-on. Once the headers are on, it'll definitely be time for heads/cam/intake, then I expect to reap the full benefit of my exhaust...

    Got headers! Will I hear/feel the difference? PIC!

    These BBK 1 5/8" shorties are getting installed on Friday. Will I be able to hear, or feel any difference after they're on?

    Equal Length headers

    Seems the small HP gain of Equal headers isn't worth all the inconveniences that it brings. Therefore, I'm choosing BBK Unequals. Infact, I just placed my order!

    Equal Length headers

    I'm tagging along. I'm buying headers today and am trying to decide which ones to order.
