Re: jimbosprint 1972 C20 - the good, the bad, and the ugly

I just found your thread. I too would go with the crate engine. It always seems to be cheaper in the long run, especially if you have a lot of machining to do on the block and heads. You might look into it, but you may even get a warranty with a crate motor. I've had 30 and 90 day warranties from engine builds, but I believe I've seen (been too long) 1 year warranties or possibly longer on crate engines. Those might be fore complete turn key systems though.
