I was a good citizen and filed early... woohoo I get 1100 thats almost enough to get all the components... not including machine work. Now I just need to deceide if I want to go with a 302 or 351...how much trouble is it stuffing a 351 in a '65-'66? same mounts as a 289/302?

A good citizen would have filed at the last minute so as to give the gov't more time to draw interst on your money.

Glad to hear my taxes are going to help out a fellow Stanger!

Maybe next year I should just mail my tax check directly to you?

Hey, sounds good.

But actually I'm getting a return on taxes that I overpaid the gov't throughout the course of the year... it has nothing to do with your taxes friend.

However, I won't be offended if you still want to send me your tax check.

Ya, but by some weird accounting fluke, I underpaid the Fed this year........so what I sent in, gets thrown into the pot and re-distributed to those who overpaid.......................

Chevy guy? Are you kidding? Haven't you seen the big F-250 or 350 that he drives around the ranch in Texas? He's all Ford.

Bet kerry drives an import.....

Ok folks, the real question is.. should I think long term durability, and save big $$$ for a dart block and top notch components like trw forged pistons and total seal rings, forged rods and crank, etc... or should I go with a DSS, CHP or other mfg. shortblock? Hell, I think I can get a shortblock for close to the price of the dart block by ITSELF!!..
