back on topic

sure its expensive but look at what you get that block can handle basicly anything you can throw at it. there is way to many threads with bitching about how the aftermarket doesnt care for moparguys and when there is something from the aftermarket this is the result people complaining about the price. if the price is low or as some would say the price is right the complaining starts about the part being inferrior and made in china. :wack:

take it for what it is some of the parts are rocksolid and way overkill some of them even made in america and the best of it all they are available, stop complaining about the pricing and start buying and show the aftermarket that there is a market worth filling and stuff may actualy change.

small quantitys cost a fortune to make big quantitys are way cheaper for the same part.
Soooo, I should spend 10K+ on a 380 hp Mopar crate engine so the guy in line behind me gets his for less $. Yeah ok. You can practically sneeze on a 318 & make over 300 hp. In addition, I've heard plenty of first hand horror stories of Mopar crate engines that failed within a few hundred miles because of poor castings, machine work, & assembly. etc. No thanks, I'll keep building my own.
