    Mike, not sure where you are located but my suggestion would be to check around for a local reputable, competent builder. If you can locate one close to home that'd be your best bet in my opinion.

    i heard that DSS blocks were good. and also CHP. there were some write ups in MM&FFs with them, they went over the engine and made sure that everything was togheter good and it all was. im going to be going with a new short block within the next year or so. deff get a girdle though.
