You guys have to know how much HP your gonna push out. That will tell you how much to spend to forge things. If your gonna go all out go with the short block. That can be really expensive though. Expecially with all the new internals.

Well, if $$ is no object...turbo will be hard to beat. But, just to give you an idea...I am over $12,000.00 on my forged N/A motor
