6400 is not totally unreasonable what so ever for a build and install...hell some of us have invested or (oh uhhhh..not me..um no..umm) more than thatin an engine and supporting parts.

you realize that ppl superchage 100k+ motors right? at just 76xxx a rebuild isnt a must, never a bad idea, but not always nessecery.

if your gonna rebuild it you might as well say **** the s/c and learn up on strokers, and h/c/i kits... and learn to do the work yourself, much more rewarding, and well, if u ask me, its not hard at all

thats both actually... but im keeping all my internals... they are just running a hone through the cylinders, installing new rings and installing new bearings... im too lazy to do it myself
And those cylinder walls were already so pretty
yea, but at 160k miles... it would be dumb NOT to do it

its lenghthening(sp!) the stroke of the piston, the piston moves further creating more displacement. 327/331, or 347 are the typical strokers w. the 5.0 block... more displacement=more power
