Thank you I figured since I have to spend the money anyways I might as well spend it on what I really want the first time around! The whole point of the 318 was to slap something together for 150 bucks just to get the car drivable asap. The plan was to have it running by fall. I started back in may. But I kept running into issues and problems and one thing lead to another with the 318 and I was looking at a 300 dollar machine bill and 404 dollar pistons and 160 dollar cam and so on and so forth. Then there was the whole thought of just buying another engine. The cheapest one I could find was 350 and it was still no guarantee that it wouldn't need machine work or new pistons as well. So I figured wth let's just do the long term plan now! Its gonna cost more and take longer I'm using my entire car budget on just the engine which means no paint for a while. Hahaha its all good tho it will be worth it in the long run I know I will be happier with it. Rather than having a bone stock 318.
