Go for it man....if a few years maybe the mopar stuff will catch up, but right now the LS motors are tough to beat.
Regardless of brand...if someone told you that you could get a new, all aluminum crate motor for $6k, bolt it in and run in the 11's, who could say no to that?!?!
Some of the budget builds I have been coming across are downright ridiculous as far as the numbers they are running for the money.
Going fast is going fast...and I can't hate on anyone for trying to do that.
Faster, Faster until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death...
