the shipping will be big bucks thats why i'm looking for a dealer in michigan , i can;t believe these dealers in canada there nuts,

for putting a zz4 together for 1300 , i find that hard to believe
you could put together a zz430 with the lt4 hot cam and the fast burn heads,
remember the zz4 is the best of the best 4 bolt main aluminum heads ect

Believe it because I did Keep in mind though I never said the parts were new because they aren't except the cam. But the used parts are all low miles

Why not get the zz4 bottom end and use the rest of the money for decent heads instead of the ones it comes with that barely flow 200 cfm at .500 in lift. The bottom end cost less and shipping should be less. And you could do a vortec head/intake combo or something else.
