    Cheap power would be a big block any day of the week TBH.

    Cheap fix is defiently a small block though.

    My mate always says something similar, (albeit aimed at turbos) but he always says there is no replacement for displacement

    He is 23 and drives a BMw 740i so thats why

    LMFAO

    Depends on what you want to do TBH, spend loads of money making a 200bhp N/A smallblock, make 200bhp building a turbo small block, or spend £200 for an instant 150bhp starting point

    i think you lot are right, theres no replacement for displacement, it would mean just another month of waiting for some body's,

    well maybe a bit more as id want to sort the chassis out

    coilin smith will do me a complete conversion (everything) for £500 delivered to my door
