Default VENDORS- piece for me a long block capable of holding 500-550whp.

Let's see what I'm looking at in terms of $$$

I'm interested in:
eagle rods
wisco pistons
whatever cams are best with a Vortech and stock springs/head
bearings
gaskets
timing chains ( my engine has 85K miles )
whatever else is needed to do the build.

I want the cheapest/reliable setup possible. I'm not looking for exotic stuff to get 1000whp, but I don't want an engine that will blow with 500whp.

HOW MUCH $$$ AM I LOOKING AT IN PARTS?

They seem to have the lowest prices. Although I would be looking for a good shop to do the labor rather then pricing out parts. Ive been pricing my build for the last month and with shop labor + parts for a build like your looking for is going to cost me around $5,500....not including re-tune and injectors. Im just trying to find a longblock for cheap somewhere now to start the build while im still driving around on my stock block.

u might want to look into a built tranny if u're looking to get into the 500whp range. Also I would recommend upgrading to the T trim with CAMS and pnp head.

estimated pricing:
built tranny -3K
motor - 4K
cams - 1K
T-trim upgrade -1300
EMS ie vpro or haltech - 4K
injectors 800cc - 400
stage 2 fuel line - 1K

Have fun bc the list keeps getting bigger

OP, it's better if you have this over on the Vendors WTB classifieds, because that's where they roam mostly.

GL with your build

he has a 928 Motorsports Impeller for the V2..
so I would take the T-trim off the list

EDIT: he also has Osiris as EMS so Take that off the list also..

and you end up with aprox 10K lol

I would take the T Trim off the list as well with the 928 impeller plus the T Trim upgrade cost $600 from vortech. I also dont think you need a build tranny pr vro/haltch

Id do the S1 shortblock, in my years on here, it seems to be the most proven out of all the vendors and from people I know rag their cars, not the lady boy posers.

You better do something about that transmission like mentioned as well...

u have to understand that it's not just the motor u have to upgrade but other supporting mods or things will break faster.

ie. if fuel system isnt there then u aren't going to make any pw no matter how big the injectors u have.
