It looks like the engine in the About.com project Corvette may be terminally ill.
And that's a good excuse to buy a crate motor - so, what do you all think?
GM apparently has a 260 HP 350 engine - new block and all - for about $1600.
Or I could have mine rebuilt locally for about $1200 - but I wonder if that would just
give me a 180-horse L-48 again?
I don't need huge horsepower, but something punchy would be nice. I like the sound
of 260-horse.
So, anyone have good or bad experiences with crate engines?
