I should have mentioned 'on a budget'. Swapping to the newest GEN GM motors is a wise choice if one is prepared for the level of investment. I can't swing that coin & imagine there are many others in the boat w/me.

I was reading some details on them & they are technologically impressive.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
