Default source to buy a built 5.0?
You guys know of a good source that builds 5.0 race motors? I am debating on buying a stripped notch and building it overtime rather than waiting tell I get the cash to buy a nice one.

Really? I've never heard any bad things about DSS.

Doug Herbert has a nice 347 too.

Thats a great source! I think I will be better off waiting and buying a mint built stang second hand.

build it locally! that way if you have any problems its a lot easier to get in touch with the builder..
