The first question is, Do you have a machine shop that you trust? My favorite engine to build is a 1641 with the 044 heads, scat c25 cam, stock stroke, 2 barrel progressive carb, and a good full flow exhaust. Most anything bigger than that your are going to have the block machined for larger cylinders.

so here goes:
i just aquired a dual releif case. my goal is to eventually with time and
money build a nice, carry the bus and it's shit around at 70-75 mph without
having to swap trannies type of motor. now i know folks have talked about
1835's vs. 1776's and i have heard some talk about 1914's. i know this it
should probalby be a stroker, after that i am lost. i don't really want dual
carbs because i want it to look somewhat stock. no denis, no mega squirt
either. i am thinking some sort of progressive carb. i know i will run an
external cooler and filter, probably the filter i have. i know it will have
a doghouse cooler also. so here is the big questions:
what kind of heads? what kind of rockers? what kind of stroke? what kind of bore? what kind of fuel pump? what kind of carb? what kind of oil pump? am i crazy?
again i don't want a big dogg performer like what is in will's DC. what do you all recommend?
