Would you rebuild (by a reputable shop) a 350 hour 454 MPI. New pistons , cam, heads. Will be reusing stock crank. Looking to get around 500hp. Or, trade in the 454 for a 200 hour 500hp EFI plus cash?

You asked a hundred different people a motor question. If you only get 100 different answers consider yourself lucky. You know where I stand on the issue.

Can't blame the place. People are the same from one site to the next. The Internet is like alcohol. It amplifies personalities and strengthens opinions.Quote:

Well you happen to have the same name as my favorite, now defunct, magazine. Figured it might have the same type of content as the mag did. So what is your opinion on my question Mr. Hotboat?Quote:
