to their credit, they could be needing someone for tear down/cleaning. thats how alot of people start in a shop. hell, even grinding valves and glassbeading heads is pretty much a monkey job anyone could do

sounds to me like you need to learn a bit more about engines, and the way they work.... because you just got BONED buying a DSS motor
Ok so after everyone is done pissing on me for the block,headsTB and not understanding how a motor works bullshipt! all i can say is its too late its in the car and paid for with a 1 year parts and labor if it breaks he will replace it. It sounds bad *** and when in 2nd going from 1500rpm to 3500 rpm with half throttle its way faster than the stock motor i had in it so im thinking when its done being broke in and when they reset the timing ill be dick sanding that stocker i had in it by waaaaaaay far. If somthing is going to take a shipt in this DSS block it will happen whith in one year every one has there own choice of parts and blocks and heads or what not..I like fox bodys and i also think SN95's are sum ugly ****'s trying to be a fox all and all shi.t happens and pissing on me instead of trying to help with what i got is Bullshi.t! now im starting to remember why i got banned from this site last time? cause of Aholes like you!

Thanks too everyone else that has helped me out before.

the only reason there saying anything is because of the DSS part. DSS is just over hyped plain and simple. they make it seem like your getting an aftermarket block when in reality your getting nothing more than a machined stock block.

if you dont plan on making more than 450-500 then it will be fine.

just take it easy adder does come off like an A$$hole most of the time but it is very informative. Also he has been warned many times about being nicer to the new members *COUGHS COUGHS ADDER* play nice

if you have questions feel free to ask them and do a little research to make sure you buy once and not twice

I would recommend bigger injectors, but not too big. Just my opinion, but I would go with 24# injs.
Yup, I agree. 24's FTW, have beto making 450+ at the crank to warrant bigger ones no matter what anyone says...

Thanks.

Far as HP goes i dont think ill be anymore than 300 if that.If a stock 87 302 HO is 225 hp? Then with this build im thinking like 260? would you say this is fair?
