Default SFR Engine Block

so after getting beat by a camero z28 the other night, and being really dissapointed with my Turboed 350z, I decided to look in2 an engine build. Noticed on Turbo-kits.com that they have a built block from sfr, anyone have any experience with this build? Pro's? Con's

f.y.i.-I guess I can't be completely upset, it was a 40 mph roll and he's supercharged, completely port and polished and been working on the car for years. I've had the z a good 3 mnths. It was my first race with the kit, you can't LOSE your first race!! lol

No, he's just in the wrong forum.
Just order directly from SFR. THey are a sponsor/vendor here.

PS. I completely overlooked the fact you're street racing.

Instead of putting a new motor why dont you race him at a track, show him
what the car was designed to do. Aren't Z28 only fast in a straight line, heavy chasis and terrible body role?

Let me know if I'm reading this right:

Your FI V6 got beat by a FI V8 -- and you don't undertand why?

I'll second the suggestion to get the guy to race you at a track: the Z is probably going to be the faster car when you add corners to the equation.
