Well I will probably be getting out of the dsm game for a while. Just until I can afford it as a project rather then a DD.
My motor needs a complete rebuilt bottom end. I have a stock rebuilt cylinder head. I am just going to buy a rebuilt one from someone here on the forums. I have found two options. One being a completely stock rebuild with around 15k miles. Has receipts and a build thread here on the site. The other is a built motor, with weisco 8:5.1 pistons eagle h-beam rods, brian crower springs and retainers with the same amount of mileage. Has all the receipts and pictures of the build.
Now the questions is, I can get the completely stock one for 1000 bucks shipped, maybe a little less with some negotiations. He's pretty firm though. While the built motor I can get shipped for 1400.
Is it worth the extra 400 bucks to get the built one? In yall's opinion will I make my money back versus the stock one? Or even possible make some money?
Thank you for any help or opinions!
