Actually, the purpose of the thread was to help me decide what my best option is as far an increasing power. Whether to keep the 289 and rebuild it, go for a 351 or possibly a stroker. I know a little about the latter 2, but this is my first early 289, so I didnt know what the real potential there was.
At this point, I think I'm going to keep the motor the way it is, with minor "bolt ons" and get a 351w to start rebuilding on the side (possibly stroking, pending more research ). I havent decided between new or used yet. BTW, this raises two basic *read "stupid"* questions, that I've always wondered about, definitions really. "seasoned" block: =Used? long block/short block: Whats the difference? Thanks for putting up w/ my ignorance, and thanks for the responses J
