Spool is cheaper. FG F6 short with some fat rods is even cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all depends how far you want to go but if you start with a wrecker block or your old unit with outsourcing machine work, buying and assembling your self will come in around 2-3k it all depends how far you want to go ...

No throwing bottle now lol. Matty u mite just become my new best friend lol. Obviously my block in ok, so good pistons rods maybe cam would be the better/cheaper option?

Current blocks done over 200k Im hoping to push towards 650+rwhp one day and keep it as a toy. My biggest problem is.. im only good for doing an oil change lol. Would love to know a bit about working on my engine ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
