So you want 2 go Big block...Read this first!

I might be regretting this, but I thought I would try and see if I was missunderstanding people.

about the debate.

  1. where you guys saying that it CAN cost just as much to do a SB, as it does a BB swap?
  2. It Does cost as much no matter how you build it?
If you thought # 1, then I agree. It can cost just as much. I think if you were to rebuild EVERYTHING, it would cost about the same. Maybe a couple hundred more for the BB swap cause some parts are harder to find than for the SB swap

If you though # 2, I disagree completely. If you build it bare bones, without buying any rebuilt motor, and bought as much as you could used, then there is a big difference in costs. and that is what I was trying to prove...not #1
and did you think when I said a simular build I meant
  1. to comparing a Simular build by horse power rateing?
  2. Or simular build by bying the parts at the best prices you can.
If you thought # 1 I agree again, cause you will have to spend way more on the SB engine to meet the HP of the BB, hence the prices will equal out.
If you thought # 2, which is what I was meaning, I dissagree, and I think that if you bought a running engine with 4 brl, that it would cost quite a bit more to do it with a BB.

That is what I was trying to say.

so lets see if there is any miss understandings, or if we all still dissagree

:)

I'l make sure I take a pill this time.
