i figured i would get the best responce to this in tech. im looking at getting a 331 stroker kit instead of a 306. im wondering how much it would run me to have it assembled?

kit is from dss. it is balanced, block is prepped, rods/pistons are assembled, ect. so no major preperation or machine work needs to be done, just assembly. i have never done anything like this or have the tools, so i just assume pay for it and do the rest myself.

im on a limited budget, but i figure maybe leave the car down another week or two while im at it for the advantage of a 331 im just looking for a relative number of what i could expect for assembly, thanks.

331

I think the short block 331 stroker from DSS is about $2,000.00 that is cheap you won't find any one to put a motor like that togther for that price especially since you have no experience!
