I might be saving up for the ZZ4 engine but i need some sites to find more info. also i've been told i should just buy the bottom half (block crank pistons heads) but then buy the cam and valve train separately.

im failing to see whats better about goautocenter? ive never dealt w/ them....but the prices look the same and with scoggin dickey you automatically get a 1 year warranty..looks like you have to pay extra for a warranty at goauto. im open minded so i was just wondering what you like about them better.
