Hey guys, I have a 96 gsx with fp manifold, upgraded fuel system, hx35 bolt on housing. Engine is currently stockwith metal shavings in the oil)........
My budget is around 1500. Im having a tough choice figuring out which direction I want to go, so i figured I would ask for some advice.
I can get a used 1g long block for 1000 bucks and have it put it and running around 1200.
Or
I can purchase a built but used short block for $1500 and try to clean up my top end of any shavings.
I do plan to make close to 500hp in the future, so im not sure which rout is better. whichever route I go I will have my old block/head. It runs great and makes no noise, just has shavings:/
Ideas please?
