Default RE: CHP vs DSS shortblock

ORIGINAL: vfast

wel the dss stage 10 is ok but still it's a stock block going with a dart might be cheaper in the long run or just go with a 351
i could upgrade to the level 20 block for a few hundred dollars more for reassurance....cuz i thought about that

Because my BARE BLOCK was pricey as ****.

But it does have 4bolt mains and there's no chance in hell im cracking it.

The FMS r302 and Dart blocks are one in the same.
Same casting, everything.

Edit: It's also about 50-60lbs heavier than the stock 302.
are you running the R302 block Kyle, or were you just referring to that for a comparison with Dart ?
