Default Build update. . . Found a block!!

Ok so i had some personal issues to attend to and had to put the build on hold but now im back in full swing. The shop that was doing the work just closed down![:@] So now im having someone else do it. . .hes like a car god and i feel much better with him doing the work anyways. Also i WAS going to go with the MMR 900 but a buddy of mine is selling me his forged short complete short block (Its still MMR) with only 7k miles on it for $750. . but its only good up to 600 hp. . . so no 200 shot. . . maybe just a 50 or 100 . .. . . But anyways i'll start to post pics and it starts coming together

Are you having custom grind cams made for it? or do you already have cams?

do you plan on running 2 power adders, if not what makes you think a 200 shot would put you over 600hp?

Ok so heres the scoop. He upgraded to a 5.0 stroker kit that holds up to 1200 hp . . he is blown and spraying. . . yeah i made out like a bandit on that one. . I dont think i could have a 200 shot becuase my motor as is would around 380 to 400 bhp and with a 200 shot that would put me right around 600 . . . But the downside is i really wanted to go higher compression . . this block is 10:1
