Turbo 400
im in the market for a 400 block right now and may have found one. only he has forged pistons on it. if i am gonna be running N/A for a couple years and then goin to Twin Turbo...what would you recommend. forged or hyperpathetic (as the seller calls em) 
oh yeah...its bored over .030. what would be a good price for the block, crank and pistons?
thanks

Why would you say --> "only he has forged pistons on it" These are much stronger pistons...
The only drawback that I could think of is that I heard that they are a little heavier then your hypes, but to me that alone doesn't make the the hypes a better choice.
Maybe someone else knows something I don't...
