short block crate motors
#2
If you want a crate motor, I think the ZZ4 short block is one of the best. Forged crank, PM rods, Hyper-u pistons, all brand new. I think it runs for $2000. If you want something cheaper, I think that pretty much all the GM replacments are good. Cheaper ones have cast crank and pistons.

Yup, I think most people just think of a crate motor as ready to run.
My longblock crate motor, didn't come with intake/carb/dist/dampner the GM Goodwrench 350.

OK........I wont even ask about that.
I don't think Speed-o-motive sells roller short blocks FYI, or rolller engines at all for that matter. I would go with one of the GM shortblocks. Brand new, built by GM. Check out Scoggin Dickey's site for some prices.
