 What gave you that idea? I was just trying to get all of the information before I started to go through with this shit. You and Erik are the two people I was going to ask to help when I was going to start this little project. So I do need your help. But not just yet. The march to april range is when I want to start. I'll call tommorrow around 3:00. If thats not a good time, leave a message tommorrow.

Jack,
You seem a little bitter about my comment. Why don't you just bring it up with me. I don't believe any of my statements were too far off, do you??? Oh, and thanks for slacking on my parts and prices...

could someone look at the 357 racing block and tell me if it sounds like a solid motor or if its shit. it seems like a good price, but not if the company is shady.
thanks
David

Why don't you take all that $$$$ that your going to spend on a 351 swap and build a 302??? You can get more power from a 306 with heads and intake than you can from the 357.....and it would cost less money. Just my .02 cents

They sent Ted a CUSTOM cam and it is just a reboxed TFS stage 1.They also sent him the heads didnt say what plugs to use, didnt advice of smog port plugs needed and didnt advice of reducers needed. The heads have a machined recess that looks like ARP washer would take up the slack for (7/16 to 1/2 inch) and act as the washers do when using 7/16 on TFS heads but they actually required the spacers. They didnt send. Just a shady deal they didnt seem to know much about their product on the phone nor the install and reboxing a TFS Stage 1 cam and calling it custom?? Come on now. I have heard GOOD things from them tho.

David,
Just buy a reputable shortblock. Next- buy the combo you really want(heads/intake/etc.). F the bullsh*t, just build what your heart and experienced pro's suggest. Horsepower is nothin' but money. Get as many suggestions as possible.
