We have a 1/2 mile dirt race track here in town. You can't find a used 350 Chevy engine that isn't wore out, and then they think a rebuildable core is worth $500. You can find nearly any other brand of small block engine in good enough condition to drop in a car for about 1/2 that price. Good thing you can still buy the "new" assembled in Mexico small block Chevy's for little money, but as I hear it, you have a 50/50 chance of getting a good one. Seems a cheap and reliable Chevy engines are a crap shoot as well. Of course, for twice (or more) the money you can actually buy good motors.
Still the sheep think you have to have a Chevy 350 to have a reliable engine. Who says advertising doesn't work? What ever makes them happy, I know better. Gene
