What are you talking about, Sky.. You lost me bro. The parts cost about the same. Changing cranks will cost alittle more but you get a better rod ratio and a stronger crank for the money. If you were to build a 306 with the same quality parts there will not be $1500 in difference. If your talking about using the same rods and crank and just doing a simple rebuild then I see where you are coming from but if you are doing a quality rebuild then there is not as much difference as you think. If you are looking to add some serious power you really want some stronger parts. You can't compare a cheap .30 over bore to a 331 stroker..
