VT, DSS or MMR forged shortblock with VT blower cams and a transmission and rear end built to handle the power.

RE: Short Block, Long Block or what?

yea, get the shortblock.. maybe cams and heads... or get the axles and drivetrain stuff done... your best bet would be to get the internals and such and get that engine built... it takes someone alot less to save up for axles than it does an engine...
