Short Block vs. Long Block?
Call me naive, but what's the difference?
|
short blocks dont come w/ the heads and intake like the long blocks do.....
|
To be a little more precise, a short block is usually a bare block with the crank and pistons installed. No cam or timing chain. A long block is usually a complete engine, less the accessories like the alternator and carb.

Thanks guys.

Buy yourself a built longblock....doing a shortblock up is a pain in the ass.

Best place to get shortblocks. Under 3 grand for a 700hp ready forged shortblock. :punk: |

well once you pay someone to swap over your stock heads and replace the necessary parts to do so.......it costs alot of labor and more time for the car in the shop. I want the MPH street strip longblock. Then you could buy a new intake for it and sell the old engine complete. I think you could sell a used motor for maybe $1000........enough to cover most of the labor for the install.
