Crate engines.
Im Looking around for decent crate engines for a decent price (4-6000). Just wandering if anyone can recommend a good company or engine that i should look into. Something with forged internals making anything over 300 and maintains half decent street manners. The car is going to be a daily driver with weekly abuse at the tracks so im just trying to get as much info as possible before i blow my well earned cash.

RE: Crate engines.
VT usually runs about 20+ weeks out but if you can wait, a good choice. I couldn't wait and DSS sent me a longblock in about 2 weeks. I still need to put tb/elbow and pulleys on it but it's already a neck snapper getting 24 mpg with 3.27's.
