Not a bad idea, I'm seriously sooo undecided though. I have no clue what I want to do. I change my mind every other day! lol

I was thinking about that but Im barely familiar enough w/ 351's let alone a big block. I just dont want to have problems and not be familiar w/ the motor. I guess if I start learning now by time I save up I can know a big block inside and out. Good suggestion!
