I'm tired of fixing every little problem that happens. I just want something I can rely on already. Basically everything is I fixed and I'm basically left w/ a POS engine as my last obsticle. I did the H/C/I swap on it awhile ago and my oil pump let go after about 30 miles. :notnice: So I'm tired of dealing with this kind of stuff already. I have a few spare 302 short blocks laying around the garage and was planning on having one rebuild but I've come to the conclusion that most of the people I let to work for me are lazy halfasses. I ended up waiting months for work that can be done in a day. Needless to say, I'm sure if I let someone build a motor for me it would probably take years and not be any more cost effective. The weather is finally getting nice and I want to drive my car after putting 30 miles on it in almost 3 years. At any rate I'm thinking I should order a complete turn key stroker motor and be done with it. I would settle for a 306 just b/c I'm trying to keep the price down plus I would plan on adding a s/c at some point. I was looking at coast high performance but anyone have any other places I should look into? I'm not looking to run huge amounts of boost or anything. Just need some ideas to so I can finally make up my mind and get moving on this. :shrug:
 
I tried to get ahold of him but I've had no luck. I guess you got him too busy with your car. lol. If you talk w/ him send him my way. I would like to hear what he has to say. Like I said not sure what the better way to go is right now just trying to weigh some options settle on something.

As always, thanks Nate... :nice:


Thanks rick, I guess the PM I sent you got lost when everything crashed. Let me get what I have right now in some sort of list and I'll email it to you. Then you can tell me what you think the best route would be as far as some sort of built bottom end goes.
