ok now that i have my block when i take it in does anyone have a suggestion on how big to go. or somewhere around milwaukee that can do it. i have very big plans for this so the best is what im looking for. i will be putting DR stage 3 racing heads also purchasing puater forged connecting ros and the forged alumminum pistons is there a better crank that i could buy somewhere. keep in mind that this is all not happening at once but by the end of the year this motor has to be ready by next winter. and if i have enough the DR 1000's. i know this is alot of money but you pay for what you want right. so thanks for any help guys.

Hey james20055,
the post above by 440 4x4 is that character I was telling you about. honest, does very good work, highly recommended by many, and you can even get an "order of fries with that"... (just teasing Jeff) He also suggested Allis, as I did...
Did you tighten up that downpipe yet???

well thanks for the help guys. with the motor stuff. and if i do need help i planned on asking u jeff you are highly recommended by tony so when the time comes if i decide not to do it myself your number 1. i found i guy to do the block for almost nothing cause i work with his kid. he also builds heads for a living. so maybe that will be something i could have him do or would u guys recommend the stage 3 heads. all this stuff just wanna make sure i get it right so no screw happen to it. but thanks again guys.

no i was gonna try and get the dr1000's but now all the money i saved is almost gone. parents were in car accindent year ago and they still aren't back to work. adn come to find out my mother has cancer. what else could go wrong ehh. but jeff do got a question if i get one of my blocks done how to put in. also i have a spare tranny. is there anyway that mine and the extra could come to build a good one. i guess what i'm asking is if you can do that. cause there is no way i can go the whole winter and summer without driving my baby. thanks
