Just trying to find what is out there now, who to talk to and some prices. Planning on doing injectors, turbo, CP3, drugs and would like to start with internals first.Would like to start buying parts this summer to next and build in the fall/winter of 07. So far I'm estimating about 30000cad for this motor and may start sooner if/ or as funds are available. Any info or suggestions would be appreciated.

For those of you who ask why, why not???

Do a search, TTS, Merchant, SoCal, Redline do or will have stuff available, $30,000.00 sounds about right for an engine budget.

You mention buying now for a build a year from now or better, my best advice is to wait. Believe me, the technology will be changing and even better stuff will be out in that time frame. There is a HUGE amount of stuff being developed by all of us listed in Steven's post

Thanks guys
Yea, I was kind of thinking that myself, would like to see something better in the turbo, cam, valves departments.Would hate to buy parts now and 3 months later something better comes along.
